Prayer & Acknowledgment

In the Midst of Winter Prayer

Lord,

In the midst of Winter, when the days are cold and wind can pierce remind us of 

the warmth of your love.

In the midst of Winter, when days are short, dawn comes late, and dusk arrives early remind us that in the darkness your light still shines.

In the midst of Winter, when the flowers of spring still lie hidden in the earth, when leaves are off the trees, and the world can seem bleak remind us that Spring is but a short time away.

And when in our lives we feel as if we are experiencing a season of winter, reach out to us with the power of your resurrection so that we may feel the warmth of your love and see your light that alone can take away the darkness of our soul.

Lord, help us to see the beauty of your creation in the winter months.
