Christmas is...

... making, baking, giving, and receiving.

... hearing my fourteen-month-old make silly sounds with her tongue.

... listening to the rain on my roof.

... watching my boys play Legos together, and eavesdropping on my girls as they sing songs in bed.

... sitting by the little tree with my husband.

... imagining what angels really look like, and if I would really want to see one.

.... pondering on the mystery that is-- 

the mystery of the Father becoming the Child,


the Creator becoming the Created,


the Refuge becoming the Refugee,


the King becoming the Servant,


and Love becoming Despised--


... the mystery that is...


Christmas.


May your Christmas be full of joy and peace.
