So...Christmas is "over" for this year. There's a familiar slump for most of us in the post-Christmas days, where all the anticipation has already come to pass, we've gained a few added pounds...and our Christmas wonder has faded. We're asking as the New Year approaches: "What now? Has this year been worthwhile?"
Yep, I understand. I've having those blues and silent days lately; but I encourage you not to let your Joy burn out, or lose sight of Christ just because Christmas is past. A dear friend of mine posted a Facebook status today that really reminded me that Christ IS Savior, all the days of the year:
"When
the wrappings and ribbons are in the trash, and the manger is back in
the attic, the friends and family have said goodbyes, and the house
feels empty and so do you...there is One who waits to fill your heart
and renew your hope." ♥
Hebrews 13:8 holds out the promise which is true: "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."
Amen. God bless you as we head into 2013 together!
