Mary, did you know?

I am enjoying this Christmas morning. They skies are bright and sunny. There is a calm just presently in the city. And my mind and heart are stirred to praying for the nations. As is common with me, I'm reflecting back over times when I've stood in deep moments of prayer, in different places in the world. Kwanzaa candles, a Menorah and a Christ Candle help set the mood. The flames against the brightly lit snow still have a sparkle. They remind me that today is a day to remember the joy that comes when the gift of the Holy Spirit is received.

I pray you enjoy family today, however that is defined for you. That you are reminded of the Life if Christ. And that you freely receive all that was given to you in love.

As for me, I'm drawing closer to Jesus, Joseph, and Mary, and I'm asking questions about how they really lived their life on earth...

This video reflects those thoughts, and prayers. The song is one I've loved for years, and the images are from the movie, The Passion.

Merry Christmas all. May the Lord Bless you and keep you.
