Emmanuel ... our God is with us

I love Christmas ...
not for the decorations,
not for the presents,
not for the snow,
not for the gatherings and special events
(though these can be very lovely).

I love Christmas ...
because every year I marvel more,
and more deeply:
Emmanuel,

God coming to be with us,
the Word taking on flesh
and living among us.

May you also marvel
at this gift
this year.

Merry Christmas Colleen! I hope it's not too long before I see you again!

Your head looks so small, and your coat so gigantic!! I'm glad you cropped the photo the way you did, to print it. Well done : )
