A Day to Celebrate

Lord, it’s not that easy to remember you among all the street decorations

and festive lights, or to realise that they are connected with your birth.

Many seem to almost shut you out.

 

We rejoice, nevertheless. We celebrate the day of the Saviour’s birth.

 

May the lights and decorated trees, the baubles and beads and tinsel,

remind us of the marvel of your love,

the wonder of you sharing your life with our world,

even if the world doesn’t want to know. Amen.
