Thought
for Today
“Christmas
is built upon a beautiful and intentional paradox; that the birth of the
homeless should be celebrated in every home.”

WALL
SWITCH
Sometimes we’re in the dark.
We can’t find the light switch.
We rub our hand along the
wall in hopes of hitting something.
We’re careful. We don’t want to fall.
Finally. We feel the switch and turn
on the light. Now that was easy.
But with people – all this is different.
We can’t find the light switch.
We rub our hand along the
wall in hopes of hitting something.
We’re careful. We don’t want to fall.
Finally. We feel the switch and turn
on the light. Now that was easy.
But with people – all this is different.

Thought
for Today
“And
when we give each other Christmas gifts in His name, let us remember that He
has given us the sun and the moon and the stars, and the earth with its forests
and mountains and oceans--and all that lives and move upon them. He has given
us all green things and everything that blossoms and bears fruit and all that
we quarrel about and all that we have misused--and to save us from our
foolishness, from all our sins, He came down to earth and gave us Himself.”

PEOPLE WATCHING
I am the baby in that crib.
I am Mary feeding that kid.
I am Joseph guarding this family.
I am the shepherds discovering this kid.
I am the kings lead from afar by a star.
I am the donkey, the sheep, the goat,
and the cow, not knowing who is this kid.
I am mother, father, brother, sister,
when you see me, you’ll see yourself.
People watch and you’ll start to see what
this baby saw: each other in each other.

Thought
for Today
“Want to keep Christ in Christmas? Feed the hungry, clothe the naked, forgive the guilty, welcome the unwanted, care for the ill, love your enemies, and do unto others as you would have done unto you.”
