WORD OF GOD: LIGHT TO OUR PATH

(Birth of John the Baptist)

Collect:
GOD, the Eternal Word, Who continues to speak to us, YOUR Church, we pray that YOU enable us to listen to YOUR Word, calling us to return to YOU from our evil ways, walk our ways with YOUR WORD as a lamp to our feet and light to our path. And then, YOUR WORD that YOU have sent would not return to YOU empty, rather, would accomplish what YOUR purpose, guiding our feet into the path of peace, Through JESUS CHRIST, who lives and reigns with YOU and the HOLY SPIRIT, One GOD, now and forever more.
Amen.
