MIDWEEK REFRESHER READ: Luke 2: 41-52 REFLECT: "Whatever you do, whether in speech or in action, do it in the name of the Lord Jesus." We must see all our activities as linked with God's work. In keeping with the Christmas season, we can reflect on God's presence in even the most "secular" places. Parents, children, communities, single per-sons, young and old should find hope in this pres-ence. The scripture passages from Sirach and Co-lossians specify the shape of a happy home for their times. Whether it be in care for an aging parent or in the loving interaction of spouses, the ideals have perennial appeal. The particular historical applica-tions remind us that the ideals need ever-fresh inter-pretation in our daily lives. While the cultural picture of nagging fathers and submissive wives remind us of a waning era, we are challenged to see what a happy home can be for us. How will our relation-ships evolve if we do all in the name of Christ Je-sus? The gospel opens up for us an episode in Je-sus' early life. Jesus' later visit to the temple pres-ages his destiny and tension this brought. In their family interaction, Joseph, Mary and Jesus did all in the name of God. Within our own history, we must do all in the name of this present One. PRAY: Pray for a healthy family life. ACT: Contribute positively to your family life!

PRAYER FOR OUR MEN AND WOMEN
IN THE SERVICE Dear Father in Heaven, Holy is your name, we come to you in Jesus name, petitioning for your grace upon our troops that serve us. We ask that you keep them in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. Please help them to make it through the weather extremes. We pray also that you will give each leader wisdom. Lead them not into temptation but deliver them from evil. Please heal the broken hearted and encourage the down cast. Please bring this war to a quick resolve. Ask this in the name of Jesus, Our Lord. Amen.
