Daily Intercession
Be not afraid; for behold I bring you good tidings of great joy which shall be to all the people; for there is born to you this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying. Glory to God in the highest.
And on earth peace among men in whom He is well pleased.—(Luke ii.; 12-14.)
O Thou great Reconciler of the Cross of Christ, break down the divisions between the nations and make all one family in Thy Son. While we thank Thee for each rich national heritage, we pray that Thou wilt deliver the peoples of the earth from all"'pride and arrogance and lead them to bring to the common good of mankind that with which Thou hast endowed them. At this present time we pray for .victory to the cause of right, and brotherhood, and for our own continued loyally to the truths of our religion: through Jesus Christ our Lord.
