This is the first post in the new series, Light, a recurring theme in the Bible, from the first chapter to the last.
A prayer
In his book, The Open Gate, David Adam has a section entitled “Candle prayers”. Here is one that works both as a morning prayer and an evening prayer.
Creator of light,
the blessing of light be upon us –
the blessing of daylight,
the blessing of sunlight,
the blessing of Christ light.
Scatter the darkness from before us
that we may walk as children of light.
from The Open Gate: Celtic Prayers for Growing Spiritually
by David Adam, p.28
