We shall not, we shall not be moved,
We shall not, we shall not be moved;
Like a tree, that’s planted by the water,
We shall not be moved.

it stands to reason that Jesus’s first public “sign” takes place at a wedding feast,  for Jesus himself is the marriage of divinity and humanity.

 For Luke, “being lost” is like “being dead,”  and “being found” is like “being made alive.”  This is stated most dramatically at the end of the parable of the prodigal son, “your brother was dead and is alive; he was lost and is found”.


May you be renewed by your celebration of Christ's birth.

It is to shepherds that this Good News is announced:  
“Do not be afraid;  for behold,  I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all the people."  
While the emperor says "ALL the world,"  the shepherds proclaim "For ALL the people."

May you be renewed by your celebration of Christ's birth.

Mary and Elizabeth are not alone. How good it is that God gave them one to another. God's most radical intervention into history was listened to and received in community.
