Pray Christmas - Day 16

[Mark S Mirza]

December 16

• Background to today’s prayer

  • The Bible tells us that Mary, Jesus’ mother “stored up” all of these things that were unfolding around her,

    • Watching,

    • Listening,

    • Being aware of all of the good things going on.

  • But what about you and I?

  • What will we ponder, or dwell on, during this season, and as a result of this season?

TODAY’S PRAYER

Father, You do so many great things, and yet, what is it that I store up, or treasure, or dwell on? Isn’t it so often what I want, Father? Forgive me Lord for being so selfish. Give me the grace Lord to store up those wonderful things that You lay before me, that You want me to store up, and cause me Lord, to ponder them. And then Lord, let me pass them on to others, just as Mary has to us (Luke 2:19), through the gospel writers.

Lord, help us to bear the fruit for Your Kingdom that You have planned for us even before we were born.

John 15:5 I am the vine and you are the branches. The one who remains in Me, and I in him, will bear much fruit. For apart from Me you can do nothing. NIV

Eph 2:10 For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. BSB
