Tonight was our church's Christmas Eve service. It wasn't a big production, in fact it was actually quite simple. I've found myself becoming more and more weary during this season of giving, especially as the days quickly seemed to count down to Dec. 25th... but as I sat in the service tonight and as we were singing Silent Night and Away in a Manger and the darkened room was being filled with a soft light as each person in the congregation lighted their candles, I suddenly realized that for the first time during this busy December I was filled with the one thing that has felt just out of reach...
peace...
and it was wonderful.
