Carrying Christmas

And on we go from the special Holy-days…celebrated to remind us to hold Christmas close and walk in its miracle.


Continue to be a Mary who receives, a Joseph who believes, one who, though our life inn-box is full, makes room to welcome Him and be filled with the wonder of His arrival.  Let us see that He is the ever-green one who continues to work and bless, the twinkling light of hope in our darkest nights, and the great guiding star, hanging there brightly, waiting for us to look up.  He will be faithful to guide us forward, then finally home.  

He is the wisest man who has journeyed to us from Heaven, hoping to walk with us into each of our days.  He is the tending shepherd and the sacrifice lamb who has already done the greatest work for us and now invites us into new days and new years to continue to feel the effects of His strength and care.  Oh, let’s not pack up all of Christmas.  What He offers wasn’t meant to be seasonal.
