A PRAYER FOR SURVIVING THE HOLIDAYS

 

Be with us at the holidays, and guide us, Lord, we pray
through crowded stores at busy malls, please help us find our way.


When Christmas trees won't stand up straight, please keep us calm and steady,
and help us not get too "wrapped up" in getting presents ready.


Deliver us from all the fuss of too much cookie baking,
and give us time for savoring sweet memories in the making.


In all we do, may we keep Christ in CHRISTMASTIME somehow
and may we know a little of Your "peace on earth" right now!

 


MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE CRIDER FAMILY
