For a moment, while we are here, all is quiet. while this moment lasts, we are restful, and in this moment, we find a bit of peace. then that moment slips, gone forever, and forgotten till we long for it again. The chaos sets in, and we stress till our worlds fall apart.
We often complain these moments do not present themselves, but in all reality, it's often up to us to make them happen, and I find especially during the holiday season, people forget to make room for a peaceful moment with God. To separate themselves, and have a time away from their man-made chaos. They let their lives fall and plummet into turmoil until these peaceful moments feel like writhing struggles,that we are gasping for air so hard that we don't enjoy what little we get.
SO to those still thinking, to those who not consumed by chaos, is it not sickly ironic, that a holiday to worship our Saviour, would separate so many spiritually?
Wow, Adam, you get so insightful sometimes. :)
