As we enter into this time of beginnings, a new year, a new season, a new time of epiphanies large and small, we ask for your guidance, Holy One. Take us into places of adventure and discovery, give us the courage to take risks when we need to, let us understand how deeply beloved and cherished we are. And as we do these things, help us to know that you are always with us, a light shining in the night, a radiant star to guide us on journeys near and far.
O Star, of Wonderous Light,
Hear our prayer!
