Continuing on with our Christmas series, today's worship focussed on the theme "Christmas Is A Time...To Bless And Be Blessed!". We contemplated Mary's response to the angel's birth announcement, her visit with Elizabeth and her glory song to God, the Magnificat from Luke 1&2.
Luke 2:19 says that "Mary treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart"...a wonderful response for any blessed person and a reminder for each of us to pause and take the time to really enjoy the wonder of God's love again this year.
A closing thought from General John Gowans' poem, Incarnation, is worth noting.
I can't explain the ageless truth of Love expressed.
I only know ~ in Jesus all the world is blessed.
And when I look into his face
I'm glad God joined the human race.
