Christmas of 2010

This Christmas of 2010 finds me again more blessed than in previous years. I continue to learn more about my heritage. My Christmas Prayer and Blessing have again been modified, not in spirit or intent, but in scope and in tune with my thoughts this year ... my world expands and changes as does my appreciation of life and God's blessings.

 

My Christmas Prayer

Dear Jesus, we celebrate your coming into the world 
to show us the way. 
May your light shine through us 
as we follow your way. 

Your birth is a great gift to the world. 
May we gratefully use your gifts 
for the betterment of others.

You came for the entire world. 
Let us not reject anyone but love and pray for all.

Amen

Grandpa Don
