December The Fifteenth

BLESS us today, O Father, with the realization of Thy presence. As we meet in humble paths of service, grant us that consciousness of Thy challenge to each of our lives which shall redeem any labor from seeming trivial, and so change for us the tragedy and chaos of the world without Thee into a prolonged field of honor.
Grant us, we pray Thee, to taste in these homeliest activities the joy of being the very knights of God. Give to us now and always that glorious vision of Thy fellowship which shall strengthen our courage, and transform our halting faith into Christ's certainty of the meaning of life.
Through the same Jesus Christ our Lord - Amen.

-- WILFRED T. GRENFELL
