Merry Christmas

The heart of Christmas is for those who are shipwrecked- lost and in need of grace.  When I'm not feeling well I have heightened awareness of my shipwrecked state.   I pray that each day I reach that state for then I know I have a King and I am rescued.  I look up and see the star shining today and far into the future. Glory shines around this Christmas day!  "Fear not, said ye."   My troubled mind is seized by the King- by the Son who came  in the form of a baby who has conquered all evil.   "Glad tidings of great joy I bring to you and all mankind."  Peace be on earth, let the light be brilliant in our lives- for light always overtakes darkness.   Wise and happy my soul shall be and peace to goodwill.   Merry Christmas today, tomorrow, and all days to come, AT
