A simple Christmas. The tree, stockings, and a few lights outside - that's it. Advent scripture together at night. Teaching my daughter about the baby Jesus. The Best Christmas Pageant Ever at church. There are still boxes to be unpacked, rooms to be finished, pictures to be hung. But we don't care. We are home. Our house is a mess, our life is a mess. It doesn't matter. God sent Jesus to take care of all that messiness, I'll leave it up to Him.
What a gift, I am amazed.
When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
Luke 2:17-20
