Christmas Eve

Reflection

“Some days are meant to be counted, others are meant to be weighed.” –Elizabeth Gilbert

Prayer

God over time,

We have come once again to the night before Christmas. Some of us, no doubt, have been caught up in the frenzy and counting the days. Yet now that it’s here we ask for all to be able to enter this great moment of blessing and to appreciate fully its weight and significance. Let every heart prepare him room! As a ministry, we pray that the spirit of Christmas would abound in the hearts of our colleagues, as they continue to serve so faithfully; and may our patients and families, communities, and neighbors be blessed with peace and joy in abundance, as we accompany them during this most special time. Amen.

Call to Action

What days am I most looking forward to this holiday season? Be deliberate about not simply counting the days but pausing to recognize their significance.
