Read Matthew 2:13-15
King Herod wanted to hear back from the magi after they’d found the child they sought. He said he wanted to worship him as they did. But he was lying; he really wanted to get rid of him. Jesus was warned in a dream to take his family and flee to Egypt to keep Jesus safe. Many others have also had to flee from their home because it was no longer safe there. Pray for those who look for a safe place to live and raise a family in our time.

PRAYER FOR ILLUMINATION
Shine upon us, God of glory, and by your Spirit reveal to us the grace and truth of Jesus Christ your Word made flesh. Amen.
SCRIPTURE John 1:1-5, 14, 18
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overtake it. And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son, full of grace and truth. No one has ever seen God. It is the only Son, himself God, who is close to the Father’s heart, who has made him known.
THE WORD OF THE LORD!
Thanks be to God!
