There is a moment that I so easily get lost in. I anticipate this moment as much as my five year old anticipates Christmas morning.
As the final Christmas service concludes concludes and the final hugs and well wished are given...I'm alone in the church. And in the simple quietness of Christmas Eve, I hear from God.
I hear from God at other times, but this moment is special...and sacred. It's as personal as a gift with my name on it. It's as sacred as God, himself.
Every year, I wonder if it will pass me by...maybe I'm too busy...maybe I'm not ready...maybe it just won't happen. But it does...
Thank you, God...for Immanuel, God with us. And thank you, God, for a moment like this. It's an incredible gift for Christmas.
