My Christmas Joy (#119)
Well how was it – your Christmas?
Did
you enjoy the celebration or did you get lost in the trappings? Hope you were able to see beyond the tinsel,
the glitter and the merrymaking that the real gift is Jesus Christ. He is the focus-point of Christmas.
Hope
you were able to wrap Him in your heart this Christmas.
This
Christmas for me was meaningful, reflective, and enjoyable.
I
did not engage in many of the usual rituals, but my enjoyment came from the
simple things – re-reading the Christmas story and experiencing all over again
the joy of the wise men, the shepherds, the angels, Mary and Joseph, Simeon,
and Anna the prophetess.
I
also spent time with family, reminiscing on old times and laughing at old, but
not worn, family jokes – it was wonderful!
Christmas
morning found me in church for the 5:00 a.m. service. It was a joy to minister one of my songs – “Celebrate
Messiah King.”
So…we
look to the New Year and we look to God for His blessings, for His favour, for
His anointing. We look for more open
doors for ministry.
Yes…we
look to God…
