Heavenly Father, help me today to remember our Father among the Saints, Nicholas of Myra. Indeed he is a real example and model for me and others. He dedicated his life to serving You by loving and helping others. He frequently saved others by sharing his resources. His works of charity are legend. I beg You, Almighty God, to give me the courage to imitate his saintly life. I know that I have been called to holiness, to imitate Your Son Jesus as St. Nicholas did. I need Your help to accomplish this task and thank You in   advance. As I ask Your help I offer praise to You, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, now and ever and forever. Amen.
