It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to the Most High.
Psalm 92:1
“Listen to me, my people. Hear me, Israel, for my law will be proclaimed, and my justice will become a light to the nations.
Isaiah 51:4
Simeon was there. He took the child in his arms and praised God, saying,
I have seen your salvation, which you have prepared for all people. He is a light to reveal God to the nations, and he is the glory of your people Israel!”
Luke 2:28,30-32
O God of justice and peace, we thank you for revealing your will to us. Because of your instruction, we need not stumble in the dark wondering what you require of us or what awaits your faithful people in the future. You offer us hope and a vision of where you are leading us. May we follow where you are leading that we might be instruments of your will and recipients of your blessing. Amen.
