A Prayer for December and All Year Through

"Christmas is
a season of the spirit,
a habit of the heart,
not reserved for designated days in December,
But availbale all days, all year,
lighting our way through the darkness and the
      dullness of the winters of our souls to the
      Bethlehem that dwells in each of us.
There a star shines in spite of ourselves and the
absurdities and the ironies of our existence.

We need to be reminded, now and then, of that star's
abiding presence and persistence in each one of us."
---Patricia Bowen
