Christmas Card 2006

Its no wonder that they could not understand
This Messiah in a manger
, this God-become-man;
Undiminished deity here in our skin
So human without
, yet so holy within.

Don’t dismiss the divine for the way it appears;
May God open our eyes
, and unstop our ears.
Let us not be so lulled by the common and plain

That we miss the majestic hidden in the mundane.

I had two Dr. Peppers.... now I can't sleep... hence the comment at 12:36. :) Good thing I sleep until noon!

Now you've got me wondering... is there going to be a sequel to this card!?

Actually, I just ran across a poem that I wrote that I planned on using in 2007 but I forgot! So I guess it'll be for 2008!
