I watched an old episode of the series Good Times the other day. A Christmas episode. I l-o-v-e Christmas episodes. Don’t you?

Anyway, the Evans family had relatives over to their apartment to celebrate with a Christmas dinner. James and Florida were standing, saying a prayer. I’d heard this prayer before but, this time, it truly touched me.

Unfortunately, prayers like this no longer grace the airwaves. Christmas will be here before you know it, so I thought I’d share it with you. However, a prayer like this knows no season.

Lord, we thank You for this feast

but let us not forget those who are hungry

we thank You for our health

but let us not forget those who are ill

we thank You for our friends

but let us not forget those who are lonely

and let us not forget our blessings so they can be shared by all.

Amen!

May the Lord bless you that you may bless others! And say to you as He said to Abram…
