Luke 2:8-14

Prayer for the day:
The heavens and the earth rejoice. Thank you, God, for the glad tidings you bring through Mary and Joseph. May our celebration of the child, Jesus, awaken in us the good news, and proclaim, “Glory to God in the Highest, and peace be with you.” Amen.

Question for reflection:
How do you, or do you want to, live your life in response to the gospel?

~ Stan Dueck, Director for Transforming Practices
