Today, Christmas Day, I offer a Christmas prayer…with hope it finds its way
to every person in the world…even those who don’t celebrate Christmas Day.
It’s a prayer for the children but written to the adults…
at least that’s how its verses were compiled…
knowing if it reaches the adults…it will find it’s way into the child.
This prayer goes out to every God you pray to… the Great Spirit, Allah, HaShem, Brahman, the Creator, Jehovah…you get the gist…
and any other entity you pray too…any God I might have missed.
As you pray to your Gods…pray they help us find…
dignity, respect and acceptance….pray they help us all be gentle, loving and kind.
Pray they help us create a world where no one is hungry or enslaved…
where everyone is compassionate and honorable
where we all find within ourselves the strength and courage to be brave.
Pray they help us find family and friendships where our mutual love runs deep…
in a free and peaceful world where everyone has a warm, safe place to sleep
Pray they help us build a world that is wise and humble…and just…
filled with people who we do not fear…filled with strangers we can trust.
Pray they help us find a world where wonders exist around every turn…
where we welcome wisdom and truth…where we’re not afraid to learn.
And finally pray they help us construct a world that has long been overdue…
where the wishes hopes and dreams of our children have the opportunity to come true.
A world where every person comes together to play and laugh and sing…
and do their best to make a better world…for everyone…and everything.
Where Merry Christmas isn’t just something in December every year we say
but is a feeling…a way of life…we practice each and every day.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE
