- Today’s prayer
Heavenly Father, Luke 2:7 has the famous quote “there was no room in the inn.” And yet Lord I am reminded of the child in the school play who had such compassion he couldn’t turn the expecting parents away (much to the chagrin of the school officials). But Lord that child showed a compassion, in the play, that we as adults forget in our everyday world. Oh Lord, teach us compassion. Allow us to comfort someone this Christmas season, with the self-same comfort that we have been comforted by You, Lord (2 Corinthians 1:4).
Merry Christmas,
