Praying With Wonder Through Christmas

DAY 5 OF 7

Let’s pray:

 

Father in heaven, we thank you for the great joy of Christmas.

The coming of your Son, for us and for our salvation, is indeed a cause for great joy—and he himself the greatest of all joys.

Father, stir in us in this Advent season a joy in Christ that is increasingly high and wide and deep enough to endure the many trials and sufferings we face in this age.

 

In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

About this Plan

Praying With Wonder Through Christmas

The Christmas story is one surprise after another. But sometimes the details become so familiar that they lose their impact. These short prayer devotionals help you to dwell deeply on the most unexpected and significant event in history: that God himself became one of us. Each prayer is written by David Mathis, executive editor for desiringGod.org and pastor at Cities Church in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
