THE ANGEL
Last week I told you that our
Nativity was placed where all could see it and this year it had flowers around
it. They are to remind us that Jesus
came to be with us spring, summer, fall, and winter….. no
matter what season of life we are in and to remember Jesus will still be here
even after the Nativity is put back in the box.
This week I did find
inspiration in another decoration. I
received an angel for my birthday and she is just the right size to fit in our
dining room window. The dining room is
decorated very simply -- the angel plus some garland, a lamp, and some Christmas
globes.
I think the angel needs a name
— GT. Yes, I shall call her GT.
“And the angel said unto them,
Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good
tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.” Luke 2:10 KJV
Now that she has a name, I will
continue. For some reason, maybe it is
her size; the angel makes the room feel safe.
As if she is standing guard. Wait
till you see her once she is plugged in.
GT is an infinity light angel
and, when plugged in, it is as if she goes on forever.
I had this blog finished and
had made a good point about being plugged into the power of God. Then I looked closely at this next picture
and that point was evident.
BUT – that is not what people
are to see in believers. They should see
the power of God. They should see the
hope and joy and peace and love that came to earth one night, when a baby was
born, and placed in a manger. A baby who
came to bring the light of God into the world.
Into our souls.
So this Christmas, plug in
those Christmas lights, but first plug yourself into the one power source that
will shine through you so brightly that all will see the grace and mercy and
forgiveness and eternal life – all will see the light of God.
Next week? I have already found my inspiration. That means I will not have to puzzle over an
idea.
