So I'm trying to figure out where the Christmas poem inspiration came from - and I suddenly look around and realize that I have broken the record for not taking my Christmas decorations down this year. I can't believe we're almost 1/2 way to Easter.
Yes, it's true. My tree, cards, stockings, nativity are still out.
What is up with that?
There's just something really sad about putting the decorations back in the box. It's like Jesus is born and in just a couple months time he's grown up, has had his ministry and is then approaching the cross. It's a whirlwind.
Life is kinda like that for real it seems.
I'm glad Jesus doesn't mind me lingering at the manger and enjoying the miracle of his birth, but at some point you have to move toward the cross and face the sacrifice of his death.
Thank goodness for the rest of the year to celebrate the resurrection!!
