You ate too much. You spent too much. Christmas was all you hoped it would be and more but now you miss your family. Christmas was a bad memory of all you hoped it would be. Sadly, the most wonderful time of the year comes and goes so fast. For whatever reason, we begin this season with Christmas Joy only to end with a Christmas Letdown. Like Joseph, Mary and Jesus, what begins with excitement and joy can turn to fear. In the midst of it all, though, the Lord Jesus reveals to us that each season and event in our life is part of his plan.

Matthew 2: 13-19
