Oh, Father,
What a beautiful transformation
takes place in your servant Zechariah after his son John the Baptist is born.
Where before he doubted your power and your ways,
now he affirms your provision and your plan.
He sees his newborn son,
and he knows that he will prepare the way for Jesus.
May we all affirm deeply and share widely
this knowledge John the Baptist brought:
“The forgiveness of sins…the tender mercy of our God…
whereby the sunrise shall visit us from on high
to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death” (Luke 2:77-79).
As we do, may we see you guiding our feet “into the way of peace.”
In Jesus’ merciful name. Amen.
Read Luke 2:68-79.
