Praying the Prayers of the Nativity: a daily rhythm
As we get caught up in retelling the Christmas story, it’s easy to overlook the prayers of the nativity.
Yes, the prayers.
In the Gospel According to Luke, the narrative is punctuated at various points with beautiful, ancient prayers, expressions of praise and worship and wonder, delivered by people like Mary, Zechariah, and Simeon. And while these prayers are specific to their situation — giving praise for the birth of Christ — together they form a rhythm for your daily prayer life.
Why not consider praying the following five nativity prayers each day as a way of devoting every part of your life to God.
