A Prayer for Sunday, December 28, 2014

First Sunday after Christmas Day

O God,

We praise you for the fact that the grace and love of Christmas Day linger on not only through the Twelve Days of Christmas but also into every day of our lives.

Help us to remember that Christ lives on not only at your right hand but also in our hearts and hands.

Help us to remember that Christ’s life on Earth continues in and through his followers who make up his Church.

Help your Church to live as who we are—the Body of Christ in the world that is the ongoing agent of your Incarnation.

Let the love and grace of Christmas—and of Good Friday and Easter—be evident in the ways that we live, give, forgive, and serve.

Amen.
