Beyond Amazement

John 1:1-14

If we are to honor these texts, we cannot avoid personal involvement. All of these texts are “after our souls.” We must go beyond our initial amazement, which can block our deeper spiritual development.

We can harbor within us a pondering heart, which is the vital path of discipleship, as we reflect on the multiple aspects of Christmas which include the birth of Christ within the soul.

We discover that grace is the free flow of infinite, intimate Love, so we can share this with the lives we touch each day.

The child wrapped in swaddling clothes, in the inner house of Christmas, will be you.
