Christmas Reflection

To me, Advent is an important time of preparation as we consider the miracle of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I recently came across this Christmas reflection:

If you look for me at Christmas
You won’t need a special star.
I’m no longer just in Bethlehem …
I’m right there where you are.
You may not be aware of Me amid the celebrations.
You’ll have to look beyond the stores and all the decorations

But if you take a moment from your list of things to do
And listen to your heart, you’ll find I’m waiting there for you.
You’re the one I want to be with,
You’re the reason that I came
And you’ll find Me in the stillness
As I’m whispering your name.
Love, Jesus.

May you know the closeness of our God as you celebrate this Christmas time and discover the truth of this simple Christmas poem.
