Christmas Eve

The first noelle the angle did say...was to certain poor shepherds in fields where they lay...

Don't we all want to be 'certained'. To be made sure that what is real and good in the world will win. To believe that the love that we share means something. To believe that our lives have meaning and purpose. That we should have fun merely and especially because we are humans.

What would it take to Certain you right now? What is it in your life that keeps you from being certain? Is there anything? Well if God sent angels to certain poor shepherds when they were told of Jesus' birth--what do we need to certain to us that God abides, God Emmanuel.

And know that whatever it is...it is yours for the taking. That God enfolds you even now with the certainity of God's presencee and love and hope and peace and mercy and satisfaction and protection and _________ (you fill in the blank), and wants you to rest into that knowing.

Hear the angels, you will sometime today, be ready. They will come to certain you...
Noelle noelle noelle noelle why? because we already know...Born is the ruler of all the earth inviting all people to participate in God's magnificence and presence and love.

God abide
