Oh Lord, When I have Food, Help me to remember the Hungry.
When I have work, Help me to remember the Jobless.
When I have a home, Help me remember the Homeless.
When I am without pain, Help me remember the ill.
Destroy my complacency.
Awaken my commpassion.
Allow me to share joyfully,
And allow me to see in the needy
The face of the face of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
May I always be mindful that all that I have comes from You My Gracious and Loving God. Amen
Note: Thank you Light of Christ Church here in Clearwater Fl. For praying this prayer for and with me when you came to
assist me with a person matter! Blessings! Rev. Dirk

Christmas Dinner Prayer -- Taking the Words to Heart
Consider having your family read a Christmas dinner prayer or a Christmas song together as the Christmas Dinner prayer: A
Prayer (by Martin Luther)
Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child,
Make thee a bed, soft, undefiled,
Within my heart, that it may be
A quiet chamber kept for Thee.
My heart for very joy doth leap,
My lips no more can silence keep,
I too must sing, with joyful tongue,
That sweetest ancient song,
Glory to God in highest heaven,
Who unto man His Son hath given
While angels sing with pious mirth.
A glad new year to all the earth!

Prayer for direction
Lord God, it is not clear to me how I should spend my life. It is not clear to me whe way I should go. I am comfused.
So many attractive things hold out empty promises for happiness. Help me to know your will for me, and give me the courage
to follow. May i know the true joys that are only found in he giving of my life for others. Amen
