LORD God,
thank you, thank you, thank you
for your great love
and faithfulness to me.

In Jesus’ name, I pray.
Amen.

He Waters the Mountains

He makes springs pour water into the ravines;
    it flows between the mountains.
They give water to all the beasts of the field;
    the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
The birds of the sky nest by the waters;
    they sing among the branches.
He waters the mountains from his upper chambers;
    the land is satisfied by the fruit of his work.
He makes grass grow for the cattle,
    and plants for people to cultivate—
    bringing forth food from the earth:
wine that gladdens human hearts,
    oil to make their faces shine,
    and bread that sustains their hearts.
The trees of the Lord are well watered,
    the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.
There the birds make their nests;
    the stork has its home in the junipers.
The high mountains belong to the wild goats;
    the crags are a refuge for the hyrax.
(Psalm 104:10-18 NIV)*


Whoever does not love does not know God,
because God is love (1 John 4:8 NIV)

From the Heart to the Mouth

“Are you still so dull?”
Jesus asked them.

“Don’t you see that whatever enters the mouth
goes into the stomach and then out of the body?

But the things that come out of a person’s mouth
come from the heart,
and these defile them.

For out of the heart come evil thoughts—
murder, adultery, sexual immorality,
theft, false testimony, slander.

These are what defile a person;
but eating with unwashed hands does not defile them
.”
(Matthew 15:16-20 NIV)*

Jesus Forgives His Executioners

Two other men,
both criminals,
were also led out with him to be executed.

When they came to the place called the Skull,
they crucified him there,
along with the criminals—
one on his right,
the other on his left.

Jesus said, 
“Father, forgive them,
for they do not know what they are doing.”
And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.

(Luke 23:32-34 NIV)*


May God bless you in 2026!

An Angel Appears to Joseph

This is how the birth of Jesus
the Messiah came about:
His mother Mary was pledged
to be married to Joseph,
but before they came together,
she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit.

Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law,
and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace,
he had in mind to divorce her quietly.

But after he had considered this,
an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream
and said,
“Joseph son of David,
do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife,
because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.

She will give birth to a son,
and you are to give him the name Jesus,
because he will save his people from their sins.”
(Matthew 1:18-21 NIV)*

Reading: Psalm 20

Listen to today’s reading by Jonathan Dent:
https://davidkitz.blog/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/psalm-20-mix6final.mp3


For the director of music. A psalm of David.

May the LORD answer you when you are in distress;
    may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
May he send you help from the sanctuary
    and grant you support from Zion.
May he remember all your sacrifices
    and accept your burnt offerings.
May he give you the desire of your heart
    and make all your plans succeed.
May we shout for joy over your victory
    and lift up our banners in the name of our God.
May the LORD grant all your requests.

Now this I know:
    The LORD gives victory to his anointed.
He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary
    with the victorious power of his right hand.
Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
    but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
They are brought to their knees and fall,
    but we rise up and stand firm.
LORD, give victory to the king!
    Answer us when we call! (NIV).*

Zechariah’s Song Praising the Messiah

His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit
and prophesied:
“Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel,
  because he has come to his people and redeemed them.
He has raised up a horn of salvation for us
    in the house of his servant David
(as he said through his holy prophets of long ago),
salvation from our enemies
    and from the hand of all who hate us—
to show mercy to our ancestors
    and to remember his holy covenant,
the oath he swore to our father Abraham:
to rescue us from the hand of our enemies,
    and to enable us to serve him without fear
in holiness and righteousness before him all our days.

The Annunciation of the Coming Messiah—
Mary’s Response

“How will this be,”
Mary asked the angel,
“since I am a virgin?”

The angel answered,
“The Holy Spirit will come on you,
and the power of the Most High
will overshadow you.
So the holy one to be born
will be called the Son of God.

Even Elizabeth your relative
is going to have a child in her old age,
and she who was said
to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month.

For no word from God will ever fail.”

“I am the Lord’s servant,”
Mary answered.
“May your word to me be fulfilled.”
Then the angel left her.

The Birth of the Messiah

But when the set time had fully come,
God sent his Son,
born of a woman,
born under the law,

to redeem those under the law,
that we might receive adoption to sonship.
Because you are his sons,
God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts,
the Spirit who calls out,
“Abba, Father.”

So you are no longer a slave,
but God’s child;
and since you are his child,
God has made you also an heir.

Mary’s song when she met Elizabeth

“My soul glorifies the Lord
and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
for he has been mindful
    of the humble state of his servant.
From now on all generations will call me blessed,
for the Mighty One has done great things for me—
    holy is his name.
His mercy extends to those who fear him,
    from generation to generation.
He has performed mighty deeds with his arm;
    he has scattered those who are proud
in their inmost thoughts.

He has brought down rulers from their thrones
    but has lifted up the humble.
He has filled the hungry with good things
    but has sent the rich away empty.
He has helped his servant Israel,
    remembering to be merciful
to Abraham and his descendants forever,
    just as he promised our ancestors.”
