A Scripture and a Prayer: “A Great Light”

“The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light has dawned” (Isaiah 9:2)

Prayer:

Lord, what a beautiful promise You have extended to this world and to a people lost and wandering around blinded by the darkness of evil and sin. I want to thank you, Father, from the bottom of my heart, for sending Your Son, Jesus, to be that great light to light our way and the way of others. Thank you, Lord, that through the gift of Jesus, and the death He died, that we now have the glorious gospel of Your grace and mercy, that the darkness of this world can never quench. Therefore, help us to be the light You have called us to be and share the great light of Your love to all those who by faith come to believe in Jesus. AMEN
