A Lesson From Mary

“But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.” ~ Luke 2:19

Such simple words, yet the imagery this scripture invokes is powerful.  Very powerful.

It seems like any Christian … especially any Christian woman … reading this passage would be moved.  It is so captivating, so tender.  In just the few words this verse uses, it really does capture the true meaning of Christmas.

I hope we all can find some quiet time this Christmas season to ponder and reflect upon what we are truly celebrating.  I know for me this Christmas season has seemed even more special since I have had a newborn infant son in my home.   Little Eli has provided a constant reminder to me of the glorious yet humble birth of our Savior. Our Redeemer, our Friend.

Merry Christmas!
