And now, Living and Loving Father, during this festive season of celebrating Christ’s Birth, many will be suffering and struggling! We think of the vulnerable children! Especially, those in war-torn regions, such as Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, Ukraine, and Russia. We also think of the poor widows! The homeless! The hopeless! The jobless! The shut-ins! The abandoned ones! The disenfranchised! The destitute! The downcast! We thank You for Your love for each of them! Indeed, You want the very best for them, not only in this life, but also in the life to come. That is why, in Your love, You sent Your only begotten Son into the world (see John 3:16). Therefore, open their hearts to believe in Jesus Christ. For He is Your indescribable gift to them, in this life and in the life soon to come!
