Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Father God
Reading : MATTHEW chapter 1 verses 22+23
Meditation : take time and consider these words this morning.
Promised hope from yesteryear!
What do they mean for you?
Then pause to pray for others to hear of this Good News
O LORD, hear our prayers
As we name others before you at this time.
Bless them
Reach them
Even today.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Midday
Pray God’s blessing on new families in our community
God of grace…hear our prayers and pour a blessing we ask on each at this time
Evening
Reading : read these verses again from yesteryear in Matthew 1
Reflect on the words and images – at the end of your day
and Pray in response to this God – our God who has come to us
O God Immanuel, hear our evening prayers
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
