Prayers for the Headlines, Monday, December 13, 2010

Good Morning, God
Heavenly Father, the earth is even more full of your glory as we deck our homes and "halls with boughs of holly" - and lights and ornaments and tinsel.  Our ideas range from depicting the manger scene from two thousand years ago to showing our cheerful, fun side with Santas and reindeer, decorated trees and lit-up lawns.  We show our loving and generous sides with the gifts we make or purchase to give to the ones we think we must and the ones we love, to whom we can never give enough.
Lord, thank you for the gift of our hearts:
   Pure hearts that we may see you;
   Humble hearts that we may hear you;
   Loving hearts that we may serve you;
   Faithful hearts that we may live in you;
   Reverent hearts that we may worship you;
   Believing hearts that we may know you;
   Seeking hearts that we may find you;
   Open hearts that we may follow you.
Lord, may we enjoy your glory as it is shown all around these days.
In Jesus name, Amen
