PRAYER

God of the blue month of the turquoise, the tanzanite and the blue Zircon* the month of dark nights and frosty dawns.

We worship you; for the ice-jewelled trees the misty mornings the rain-slicked pavements the steaming vents of early risers and the promise.

People look east for the rising of the star of Love, Saturn and Jupiter aligning in hope to a waiting world.

We welcome you; for the melting of frozen hearts the drying of tears the portent of peace the light piercing the darkness and the hope.

Hope is a candle once lit, burning forever circling out to warm and heal a world in pain.

You welcome us; to the birthing of justice the subjugation of power the arrival of love the Word of Life in the face of an infant and the blessing.

Blessing and honour glory and power to bind all wounds. We will walk your way.

Amen

*these are some of the semi-precious stones associated with the month of December
