ISAIAH 60:1 (CEB)
Arise! Shine! Your light has come;
the LORD's glory has shone upon you.
LUKE 1:78-79 (MSG)
Through the heartfelt mercies of our God,
God’s Sunrise will break in upon us,
Shining on those in the darkness,
those sitting in the shadow of death,
Then showing us the way, one foot at a time,
down the path of peace.

Wake up; God's sun is shining.
DAILY FODDER
Each day is a new experience of God's peace shining into our faces.
PRAYER
The glorious light of your presence shines from heaven into our lives. Lord, we confess that sometimes it's hard to wake up and take on the day. Pry open my eyes so that I can see the wonder of your light and allow it to evict the darkness from my life. Great is your faithfulness. It is new every morning. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
