Open the Door of Love

Sr. Pastor Marvin Arnpriester

Robert Louis Stevenson penned a prayer, which I invite you to join me in praying daily during Advent 2021 …

“Loving Father, help us remember the birth of Jesus, that we may share in the song of the angels, the gladness of the shepherds and the wisdom of the wise men.

Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world. Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting.

Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings and teach us to be merry with clean hearts.

May Christmas morning make us happy to be thy children, that the Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus sake. Amen”
