yesterday, patrick and i got dressed up and went to meeting. sitting there, people singing, praying, he had his arm around me and i couldn't have been happier. grateful to Jesus for dying for us, grateful for love, for happiness, for who Jesus is - His love for people, His mercy, His compassion and tenderness for sick and suffering people, His love for the humble, the sinners, the needy. His majesty, His power, His awesome goodness. His creation. the beauty He makes. warmth. snow. salvation. sweet baby Jesus lying in a manger. angels singing, trumpets blaring, gorgeous light streaming from heaven. loving and journeying.
love makes us travel. we're madly in love with our family, and we're going to see them this month. we love each other, so we travel to the store, and come back bearing gifts.
we visit our friends and decorate with lights, with pretty things sparkling and gleaming.
Jesus came down, with light from a Star. His arrival was greeted with singing, with gifts, with traveling, with love.
He brought love, brought gifts, travelled here, shone as the Light of the world, and makes our hearts sing glorious worship, joyous praise.
merry merry merry christmas everybody.
