Dear Friends,
Accompanying this wonderful season of Christmas is for most of us a great deal of good will, generosity and blessing. Many gifts are given and received and the feeling is wonderful. Today we celebrate the visit of the wise ones to Jesus who came with gifts symbolising Jesus’ life and what it would mean. They brought to Jesus the very best, gold, frankincense and myrrh. (I guess today they would have brought Jesus gift cards ?)
Christmas is a time for giving certainly, but I wonder if we should try to make all of life a time for giving and in doing so try to give our very best to God and to one another. Maybe our prayer today might be that we can always give the gold within our natures, not just during this wonderful season but always and every day of the year.
May this New Year be a time of growth in faith, a new peace on earth and an increased striving to heal our lovely planet.
May God continue to bless us all as we start this new decade.
Grant
