“Glory to God in the highest heaven,      and on earth peace  to those on whom his favor rests.” Luke 2:14 God and Father in Heaven, To you we give all glory for you are the only God in all of creation. Thank you for all you do for us each day and throughout our lives. You brought peace to earth through your Son. Thank you for your love and salvation. God you had favor on us. Through your Son you showed the ultimate love and mercy on your people of yesterday and today. Thank you for your favor and mercy. Without your love we would be love. We love you Father! Father, in your mercy, heal those in our midst who are sick and in need of healing. Especially be with Mrs. Warkeke and Mrs. Barber. Heal them quickly Lord! All of the heavens rejoiced in the birth of your Son. We too rejoice with the angel chorus as we celebrate your Son coming to earth as a baby. Thank you for your Son's birth, life, death and resurrection. We love you Jesus! Amen!

"And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing age,  was enabled to bear children  because she [ b ]  considered him faithful  who had made the promise." Hebrews 11:11 Dear Eternal Father, You are forever faithful! We praise and thank you that even in the face of adversity, you remain faithful. Sarah, even at an old age, had a child that was a decedent of your Holy Son. You fulfilled your promise through her and we are forever grateful! Since Adam we have been stuck in our sinful flesh. We ask for forgiveness for all those things we have done and all those things we have thought that are contrary to your good and faithful purpose. May you forever shine through our darkest nature. Father we are thankful for all that you give us. From the food that we eat to the clothes that we wear, you are there providing for every circumstance. Thank you for your Word that is proclaimed daily at St. John's and for all those faithful servants who preach and teach your Word.

" So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem  the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David." Luke 2:4 Jesus our King, From long ago you promised to save your people. In the fullness of time you came to earth to save us, who you loved. We praise you for your goodness and mercy and eagerly await your second coming. May we continually praise you, especially during this Advent time as we wait to celebrate your birth. Through the line of David you kept your promise to come to earth. Even though we are not worthy, you came anyway. Forgive us as we sin against you. Help us to resist temptation and always look to you instead of the world for our help. We give you all the glory and thanksgiving for all that is good in our lives, Jesus. Thank you for a safe Thanksgiving holiday and thank you for always watching out for us.  Please continue to be with all of those that sick and hurting. Especially be with Mrs. Wa
