“While Mary and Joseph were in Bethlehem, the time came for the Baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a Son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the Inn’ (Luke 2:6)
Quietest Christmas Day since I first became a Mom, forty years ago. Just Killian and me, happy and content in each other’s company. Time changes many things.⏰ We visited Marina of course, and Coonanna harbour, wild and magnificent. Zoom call with the lads and lassies in the evening. So good to be all together for a time, even virtually. Our many visiting feline friends dined lavishly outside, while we dined inside.🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈
Later, we watched ‘Good Will Hunting’. I can’t remember when I last watched a film. Wise choice by Killian, evocative and thought provoking. Robin Williams always wonderful, God rest his gentle soul.
Some things will never change though. Sublime Divine truths like: Christmas Day, will forever and ever be the Holiest of days. Walking with Jesus, who never leaves our side on our life journey, will forever and ever bring us joy in abundance, no matter the circumstance or trial. Immutable and comforting in this our day and time.

‘God wants us to enjoy life to the full. “I am come that they might have life”. C.S. Lewis once said; “God never meant man to be a purely spiritual creature, He likes matter. He invented it”. Of course He wants you to enjoy the taste of plum pudding, the flavour of the wine and the warmth of the fire. All these things come from the earth, His earth’. (from ‘The Kingdom within’)
