I seemed to have more Christmas spirit a little over a month ago than I do now. Here it is the day before Christmas and I still have not put up any Christmas tree, and I don't even feel like it. The buying of gifts was, at best, a lack-luster exercise this year. And my two sisters that live here are both going to visit other family this Christmas.
But each time I hear this version of "O Holy Night", it sounds like an angel is singing it. (Josh Groban is what I imagine the angel Gabriel to look like too.) And it is a gentle and lovely reminder that all is okay in my world and no matter what is thrown my way, I can always rely on the Lord to lift me up in spirit and mind. No matter what others say or do (or fail to say or do as promised), I have faith in Him to see me through it all. He is who is there whenever you need Him. You just have to learn how to let Him in your heart.
