On the Third Day of Christmas........

Prayer of the Day

All powerful and unseen God, the coming of your light into the world has brightened weary hearts with peace. Call us out of the darkness and empower us to proclaim the birth of your son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
Amen

Hebrews 1: 1-4

1 In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe. 3 The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven. 4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.


Since Jesus is the "exact imprint of God's very being." How can that help you when trying to describe God to others?

If we say, “We are without sin,” we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
If we acknowledge our sins, he is faithful and just
and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from every wrongdoing
. 1 John 1
