Lord, In the midst of Winter,
when the days are cold and wind can pierce
remind us of the warmth of your love.
When days are short, dawn comes late,
and dusk arrives early remind us that in the darkness
your light still shines.
When the flowers of spring still lie hidden in the earth,
when leaves are off the trees, and the world can seem bleak
remind us that Easter is but a short time away.
And when in our lives we feel as if we are experiencing
a season of winter, reach out to us with the power
of your resurrection so that we may feel
the warmth of your love and see your light that alone
can take away the darkness of our soul.
Amen.
