I wonder if you have your Christmas tree down, the paper put away, your recycle bin filled with boxes and returns ready to be made.
It takes a lot to get prepared for the few days of celebration.
So often, we can all relate to the exhalation when Christmas is over.
I came across this piece, and it resonated in my being.
May we be faithful to the work of Christmas every day of the year!

When the song of the angels is stilled,
when the star in the sky is gone,
when the kings and princes are home,
when the shepherds are back with their flocks,
the work of Christmas begins:
to find the lost,
to heal the broken,
to feed the hungry,
to release the prisoner,
to rebuild the nations,
to bring peace among the people,
to make music in the heart.
