Fears and Tears

Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to those whom His favor rests. Luke 2:14

The ordinary, hidden life is an extraordinary life, the little moments in time that turn my gaze to the Lord, to seek Him. It is a beautiful time, the Christmas season, where my attention is fixed on the Lord, who came to earth as a baby born all those years ago. He came with great love in a most unexpected way. That is the way with God, it is not the way I imagine things.

Sometimes the way to Jesus is down and not up, it is an unexpected path to follow to reach Him. Just as water finds the lowest point and fills the space, so the Lord fills me in my deepest regions. He descended to a lowly cave in Bethlehem, geographically a low place on the map to ascend to the heights of Heaven.

I listen in the deepest regions of my heart for His still small voice calling out to me, to seek Him, to visit Him, to follow Him, receiving His love and I feel great joy resonate in my entire being. He is here, present with me, leading me where I am to go.

It is the little way, the small things He calls me to. It is a simple and prayerful life. Moments spent gazing on His sweet face, receiving the love from God and in my little way, giving Him my love. I long to press the baby Jesus to my heart and adore Him.

O Come, Let us Adore Him, Christ the King.

Wishing you a most joyous Christmas Season! Merry Christmas, Vikki
