John 1:1- 5; Genesis 1:1- 5
Prayer for the day:
Maker of life, help me to see your fingerprints all over my world today. When I see light or darkness, remind me of the ways you separate the light from the darkness. When I see earth, and water, and creatures, let me remember your creative genius. When I encounter my sisters and brothers today, nudge me towards actions which deepen relationships. In you and your creation I will find the source of all my joy – alleluia! Amen.
Question for reflection:
How is God calling you to new life this advent season?
~ Becky Ullom Naugle, Director for Youth and Young Adult Ministry
