Putting up the tree, baby Jesus is nestled in the branches first - in the
'heart' of it all, the tree evergreen like God's faithfulness...the wood of the
tree which formed a manger...a boat...the cross. And so we surround and adorn
with lights for the Light of the World, with happy memories framed in glitter
and paste celebrating the blessings we have so enjoyed. St Nicholas' abound -
reminding us to be generous to the poor, to serve God with joy. Angels are
scattered about, with Kyla's latest rendition on top, to proclaim the good
news! There are stars to guide and hearts to follow the way of Love incarnate.
Pearls are draped that remind us of the pearl of great price. I find so much
reflection there this year...Come to me Jesus, be born more deeply in the poor
manger of my heart...
