Christmas Comes Again
Christmas comes again; no matter what we do or do not do. Christmas comes every time we see the image of God in another person or other people. It is as if the human and the holy meet all over again in the stable of Bethlehem. Christmas comes as if on a continual journey toward the Holy City of Jerusalem. Nothing can stop it. Christmas continues to come despite hatred and greed. Christmas comes despite warring madness. No act of terrorism or violence can stop Christmas from coming. There are no present day Herods strong enough to prevent the star from shining or angels’ voices from being heard. Someone somewhere will know peace to all man and women or earth who please God. And the Christ child will be born again.
