The Wonder of Christmas
“But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.” Luke 2:19
Christmas is often a time of reflection. Years ago, when Mary heard the shepherds glorifying God because of the birth of the Christ Child, she sensed a deep wonder that something incredible was happening. Indeed it was, for there wrapped in swaddling clothes was the Savior of the World. Immanuel had come – God with us.
I encourage you to take some time this week to follow Mary’s example, and ponder, reflecting on the wonder of Christmas.
