My Christmas Prayer

Lord. There are many prayers that I could offer this Christmas, but here is just one of them. Lord. I want to be a spreader of good news. I want to be like the SHEPHERDS who encountered the angel who then informed them of Jesus's birthplace. They did not hesitate to go see for themselves and spread the good news. Lord. I want to be one of your guides to a seeking world. I want to be like the STAR IN THE EAST that was obedient to The Almighty and guided the wise men to the baby Jesus. Lord. I want to be able to go the extra mile. I want to be like the WISEMEN who did not mind going the distance or the extra miles but came from afar to worship The Christ. They both worshiped and gave Him their best. Lord. I want to obey, even when I don't understand. I want to be like MARY who, even though she did not understand, was willing to let God use her His way. Lord. I want to obey, even at times when I am confused. I want to be like JOSEPH who, although confused about a young lady he loved, obeyed and followed through. Lord. Allow me to point others in the right direction. I want to be like THE ANGEL who warned the wise men in a dream to go in a different direction. Lord. May I and millions more, be peacemakers. I want to be like the HEAVENLY HOST who praised God and declared peace on earth and goodwill toward men. Thanks for listening, Lord. Amen. 121722PSCtest, A BRIAN STRAND PREMIERE CHOICE no 55
