Nothing ever seems too bad, too hard, or too sad when you’ve got a Christmas tree in the living room. Nora Roberts

It’s Christmas Eve. It’s the one night of the year when we all act a little nicer, we smile a little easier, we cheer a little more. For a couple of hours out of the whole
year, we are the people that we always hoped we would be. Frank Cross, Scrooged

Open Door Discovery When God is about to open the right doors for you, God will first shut the wrong ones. May God bless you with open doors that lead to wonder, discovery,
and delight.

May God bless you tonight with anticipation, and awe. Hold on to your hope and may you never be too old to search the skies on Christmas Eve.

Angel of God who is near to me, help me pay attention to all I see. Shine brightly upon the unnoticed, the dull and dreary. Sing with good cheer, allow my ears to hear your
holy melody. Blessed companion, I thank you for wings to shelter me from harm, for spirit that you share with me, and for the blessings I am about to receive.

Peace Forevermore Dear God, help me honor the sanctity of that which I celebrate, giving gifts of loving-kindness, accepting that which I cannot change, and living peaceably
with my neighbors. Praise to You, now and forevermore. Amen

Romans 15:13 God fills me completely with joy and peace because I trust in the Lord. I am overflowing with confidence and hope abounds through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Isaiah 9:6 For a child has been born to us, a son is given to us, and the authority is upon his shoulder, and the wondrous adviser, the mighty God, everlasting Father, called
his name, the prince of peace.

Hassled time, hurried time, crafted of jammed schedules, marathon cooking sessions, and shopping trips from hell. Why do I make this season harder than it must be? All You ask
of me is to live and give thanks. All I am doing is pursuing busy-ness. Stop me. Oh God, remind me of my treasures, the ones I did not buy in a store. On second thought, prayers of gratitude will be my go-to, yet another reason for the season.

Dear God, Bless my family and friends, and all the people in the world who need blessings today. As I come before You in prayer, I ask that no bitterness betray the sweet
souls you have placed in us. Soften the hearts of the stubborn. May common sense prevail and success follow. I am grateful for Your guidance and protection. I offer thanks and give praise. Allelujah!

Dear God, I know there is no such thing as coincidence, only fate – divinely planned and brilliantly executed. Show favor upon me, help me realize my full potential. I give
praise to You, my Creator who shapes my destiny in loving splendor. Amen
