For my meditation I reread this massage from Howard Thurman, entitled The Work of Christmas.
"When the song of the angels is stilled,
When the star in the sky is gone,
When the kings and princes are home,
When the shepherds are back with their flock,
The work of Christmas begins:
To find the lost,
To heal the broken,
To feed the hungry,
To release the prisoner,
To rebuild the nations,
To bring peace among brothers,
To make music in the heart."
Given the conditions in our society and world today, there is much work to do after the Christmas is gone this year. Therefore, the question is what will you do not for Christmas, but after Christmas to usher into reality, The Savior Has Come!"
It appears we are fighting never ending battles against enemies who are always seeking to steal our joy, rob us of our peace, and to kill our dreams.
On this day I proclaim, "Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world."
I believe in the greatest of God who is able to overcome any situation, any difficulty, any circumstance, and any problem.
Yes! Our God is a great God!
