Reflections Along the Jesus Way
December 19, 2024 – Quote for the Day:
“The shopping malls are filled with people whose credit cards are maxed out and whose hearts and souls are empty. Simon and Garfunkel reflected – ‘the people bowed and prayed to the neon god they made.’ In Eleanor Rigby, the Beatles sang of ‘all the lonely people’ in a religious, church setting. Loneliness characterizes the lives of those who have not yet seen or embrace the light of Jesus.
I am not alone at all, I thought. I was never alone at all. And that of course, is the meaning of Christmas. We are never alone. Not when the night is darkest, the wind coldest, the world seemingly indifferent. For this is still the time God chooses. – Taylor Caldwell”
