Christmas Prayer

Heavenly Father,

On this holy night, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude and joy, celebrating the birth of Your Son, Jesus Christ. In the humble manger of Bethlehem, You revealed Your boundless love to the world, sending us the Savior, the Light in our darkness, the Prince of Peace.

Lord, as the angels sang of Your glory, may our voices join in praise. As the shepherds knelt in wonder, may our hearts bow before You. As the wise men offered their gifts, may we give You our lives in love and devotion.

Fill our homes with the warmth of Your presence, our hearts with the peace of Christ, and our world with the hope of salvation. May this Christmas remind us of the true meaning of love—selfless, eternal, and divine.

Bless our families, our friends, and all those in need. Let the light of Christ shine in every heart, bringing comfort to the lonely, strength to the weary, and joy to the sorrowful.

We thank You for the gift of Jesus, our Redeemer, and we pray that His love may reign in our hearts today and always.

Amen.
