Let everything that breathes praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
Happy Birthday Jesus! Let us celebrate this day, not by wondering at all we have received this day, nor for all we have been given this day, not in the gifts under the tree, or the family gathered around us, but let us celebrate for the birth of our savior! God stepped off His throne and descended to be among us, just like us, Emmanuel – God with us! He gave up what was His to claim, and took on our likeness, and our form and came to be with us. Celebrate this day the most wonderful gift you could have ever received a God who moves heaven and earth to be in a relationship with you!
Happy Birthday Jesus, thank you for coming and giving us your light, love, mercy and grace so that we might shine you to the world, and be in relationship with you, the Father and the Spirit! Thank you Jesus for the greatest gift we ever could have asked for or received, You!
Gracious and marvelous baby born to us this day, come and fill our lives with your love and mercy so we might shine your light to this world that so needs the relationship you came to bring us. Guide us and lead us to live in your light and love, and give us strength of your Spirit to be you in this place. Amen.
