O Radiant Dawn, splendor of eternal light,
sun of justice:
sun of justice:
Come, shine on those who dwell in darkness
and the shadow of death.
Isaiah 9: 1, 58: 8, 60: 18-20
Malachi 4: 2
Luke 1: 78-79
John 8: 12

Today we praise Jesus the Son of God as our Sun of Justice. The sun and its light and warmth is a powerful image that has resonated with people over the millennia. Today is the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere, the Winter Solstice, marked by ancient agrarian cultures as a time of new birth - the moment when the sun begins again to overcome the darkness.
- In the dark corners of your life, what fears and life-sapping forces cry out for transformation through the power of God's illumination?
- How can you be a source of 'warmth' or 'light' for someone else today?
