A Glimpse of Daylight

A quiet Christmas morning, an ordinary start, and a moment of light that gently changes the feel of the day.

He woke up expecting an ordinary day. Same room. Same quiet. Same still air.

Yet the window held an awakening glow, light waiting patiently. Beyond it, breaking dawn stretched across the sky, slow and sure.

He opened the window. Cool air came in. Light crossed the floor, chasing sunbeams, until the first rays found the walls and stayed.

The room shifted gently. Colors settled into morning hues, and the day felt wider.

Nothing announced itself. Everything felt placed.

He walked toward the door, paused, then opened it just enough—a whisper of light slipping through—to catch the new horizon of the Christmas morning.

Find Seeds of Hope in Each Day • Fri.12.19.25

Hope is planted daily—look for the seeds God leaves for you.

Excuses fade when we remember that God stands with us. Christ’s death and resurrection placed hope back into our hands—hope strong enough to carry us through weakness, fear, or doubt. Each moment holds a small seed of hope waiting to be noticed.

Based on the Word of Life (March 1985) by Chiara Lubich

✝️ Prayer for Daily Hope

Lord, You rose to fill our lives with hope. Forgive us when discouragement blinds us. Thank You for standing beside us in every challenge. Help us find the seeds of hope You plant in our day and share that hope with others. Amen.

A prayer a day, keeps the soul from drifting away
