From Today's Daily Bread Devotional:
Making Room for Jesus (verse 1)

By Danny Belrose

Collectively and individually, you are loved with an everlasting love that delights in each faithful step taken. God yearns to draw you close so that wounds may be healed, emptiness filled, and hope strengthened.
Doctrine and Covenants 163:10

Wave Offerings, Herald House, 2005

A weary hand knocks on the door of an inn,
and there is no room!
No room, God of Love, for love to be born.
Oh, how we need your gift of love!

Love of neighbor, love of enemy, love of self.
Healthy love, holistic love.
Healing love that melts the ice of alienation,
that warms each heart with the wonder of acceptance
for every child that love has birthed.
Surely there is room for love!
Love that seeks and saves. Love without strings.
Love for love’s own sake
uncaused, uncalculated, unrequiring.
Prayer Phrase

“I bring you good news that will cause great joy” (Luke 2:10).

Kindling the Light

Choose a quiet spot where you can sit comfortably. Place a candle or small light in front of you. Take a few slow breaths, letting the noise of the day settle. Light the candle. As you strike the match or switch on the light, say softly:
“I make room for joy to grow within me.
I make room for the light that connects me to others.
I make room for the Spirit of Christ.”
Pause for a few breaths, letting the glow of the light fill your awareness.
