Dearest God,

It is Christmas again!  Your beautiful generosity in allowing us to sing the song of Christmas faith once again touches me deep down in my soul.  Year after year it is the same.  Your exceptional generosity, wondrous love and amazing grace inspire, heal, help, bless and touch us.

Thank you for every kindness during Advent, for miracles and healing, for help and guidance and for gifts, small and large.  They have overwhelmed me.

Last night's Christmas Eve service with its music, message and readings caused me to weep into my cloth mask as I whispered over and over again, "This is all for you, Lord, all for you!"  We sang our praises, offered our prayers and lifted our candles, the light of our faith to the heavens.  "All for you, Lord, it is all for you!"

Blessed are you

God Most High,

blessed are you.

All praise 

to you,

Holy One.

Thank you

for the blessings

of Christmas.

Love always, Andrea
