“Through a Poor Young Woman” — a prayer for Christmas Day
Most High God, for you nothing is impossible.
Through a poor young woman in a less than ideal circumstances you gave birth to your realm of endless glory.
By your Holy Spirit, fill us with new life and hope and overshadow us with your power and grace so that we, like Mary, might be your servants, bearing witness to the promise of your Word; through Jesus Christ, who is coming to reign. Amen.
