Dear God,
At this Christmas
season, please open my heart.
May I learn to be a giver, not a taker,
for only thus can I feel blessed.
Make of me an instrument of Your peace,
that peace might fill my world.
May Your abundant mercy touch my life.
May my heart so give and so receive as to expand to touch the stars.
May I so learn to live with love, that I might know of heavenly bliss while still on earth.
May the miracle of Christmas
be a miracle in my heart.
Amen
