I don't have the strong belief in, "it's the most wonderful time of the year." But I do a little i am still waiting for my bit of Christmas magic. My unspeakable joy. A a few glimpses here and there. Lately I have been feeling some anxiousness, preoccupied a bit, not as peaceful Last night, I made a resolve to really give myself over to these remaining days and just Be in them. Well this morning and all through the day I have had a searing pain in my neck I believe from sleeping on it wrong. Then dev was sick after school and slept off and on. Not the picture I had in mind.
I have all the necessary ingredients. Only a few days remain. I want to be a blessing to this little family of mine. To be in the moment, be spontaneous, be present. These are the gifts I want them to unwrap. These are gifts I can give. These give joy. But i realize as I write that I don't have It within myself, so I want to make room for Him in the Inn of my heart so he can prepare me to set a feast for my family and together as we celebrate Christ we will experience "unspeakable joy."
This is what He has been trying to tell me.....you have all the necessary ingredients, you just can't go it alone, make room....So I will.
Joy to the world, the Lord has come!
