DECEMBER 2 – Genesis 1:1-5
By: Michael Strickland-Dobbs
For me this passage sets the tone for the rest of the bible. Knowing that God created everything from nothing in that moment, guides me in the reassurance of the spoken word. When God says, “Let there be light” and there was light His word gives a strength that helps me. For me the power of prayer, spoken aloud and especially with others allows me to see God and Jesus in that light. In all the darkness of life’s struggles, knowing that this light is there for all of us and that all is good strengthens me.
Prayer
Dear God, As we approach this joyous season, we pray that the love and the light you have given us shines as bright as always and leads us to peace through your son, Jesus Christ. Amen
Family Moment
God is the creator of every good thing! As a family, take turns sharing something that God made. You can illustrate how many things God made by putting a rock or a penny in a jar – one for everything that God made. Pray together: Creator God, thank you for making everything. Thank you for making my family. You are so good! AMEN.
