Prayer

Empowering Spirit,

Hanukkah reminds us that your ways are higher than our ways, and that your plans for us will not be thwarted by any mechanism of human power or might. As our Jewish brothers and sisters continue to celebrate Hanukkah, may we all take this opportunity to remember your gracious provision and protection over us, and how we depend upon you for every dimension of our safety, comfort, and peace. Inspire us with gratitude, that we might rededicate ourselves to serving you by serving those you put in our path, especially those who are most in need. Amen.

Call to Action

Take five minutes today to remember those who have empowered me with their spirit of service and faithfulness. Recommit to embodying that kind of spirit today.
