Holy Father,

Isaiah wrote, “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light…”

May we see that light –

recognizing the gift of salvation through Jesus.

May we be full of that light; inviting the Holy Spirit into our hearts 

and emitting the light for the whole world to see.

May Your light, indwelling within us,

change us and fill us with hope and faithfulness.

In Jesus’ holy name. 

Amen.
