S6.3 |
Just as I Am not a son of God, but instead, am a sunray of the mighty God, Christmas is not about giving presents and is about giving presence. Spelling and word meaning make all the difference here. The true meaning of Christmas is to honor the birth of Christ in all. This can be done today, across the vast worldscape, and it can be done each and every day. Giving the gift of presence in the here and now is a mighty testament that the living God makes to Itself. It doesn't cost anything, but it pays great amounts of interest. Christ can't be found in the aisles of a store. It can't be wrapped up and mailed. It is found in a simple smile, a simple willingness to acknowledge the truth of any situation; God is here now. What does God want me to do? |
