Heavenly
Father, Emmanuel, how thankful I am that You are with us. It is so
easy to get lost in the crowds of Christmas. When we don't hold tight
to Your hand we can be lured away by the false glitter of consumerism
instead of the true gold of the Magi. We can be pulled away by the
busyness of occupation instead of leaving it all to give top priority
to seeking You with the shepherds. We can be diverted by the
popularity of parties instead of the quiet ponderings of Mary and
Godly dreams of Joseph. Help us to hold You close and to walk with
You through these days of preparation. Help us to celebrate Your
birth, O God-with-us, now and forever - Amen.
