Dear God,

No one can stop Christmas from coming!  For you, O Lord, drive us to our knees at the manger not because you demand it but because you want us to get deeply close to your merciful love.  And right now we need all the merciful love we can get.  The world is hurting; it needs the kind, quality and quantity of love only you can give.

You are always pouring out your love on us, dear God.  We don't always see it but it is there.  We can't always see it because we are blinded by all kinds of things that get in our way.  In the quiet with eyes of faith we are enabled not only to see it, but hear it, feel it, touch it and eat and drink it.  It's all there...at the manger.

Heavenly Father,

let the 

angels come

and sing.

Let them

stir our hearts

and inspire

our souls.

Nudge us

to sing

with them.

Come, Lord Jesus,

come now,

today and

all our tomorrows.

Love, Andrea
