Adoration of the Shepherds (1609), by Caravaggio
Active God of grace, we laud and magnify your wondrous Name.
Christmas Day is nearly upon us again.
This annual reminder of your gracious love
fills us with awe and wonder
as we consider the ultimate purpose of the Messiah.
May we therefore thank you with our
words,
attitudes,
and deeds,
for your glory and the benefit of others.
In your Name we pray.
Amen.
