As families conclude their celebration of Christmas and begin to put their decorations away, it doesn’t mean that the spirit of Christmas needs to be extinguished.
Christmas is much more than a season, and its beauty should permeate our lives all year round.
Here is a collect prayer from the liturgy that can be prayed to keep the star of Christmas shining in our lives past the Christmas season.
Almighty God,
the light of a new star in heaven heralded your saving love.
Let the light of your salvation dawn in our hearts
and keep them always open to your life-giving grace.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
(one) God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
