Why are we in such a hurry to take down our Christmas tree, lights, and beautiful decorations? We know that while all of the decorations are being put up, the excitement and anticipation of the giving season to come gives us so much joy! Do we really remember the reason for that joy? The birth of Jesus! I love to bask in the glow of my decorations for as long as possible. There is just something about the lights that puts that joy in my soul! I am a firm believer in keeping the spirit of Christmas alive until the Feast of the Three Kings.
I will admit that the cleanliness of all of the decorations being stored again for another year also brings with it a different feeling of joy. The clean feeling that we experience with the birth of our Lord! I guess there is something to be said for that as well. Do you feel the need to clean your soul?
God bless,
