Luke 2: 40 And the child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was on him.
Mary and Joseph have seen so much since the angel told them about their son. There was the trip and the birth. There were shepherds and wise men. There was Simeon and then Anna, who saw the Lord's plan in the baby. Now their baby is not a baby anymore.
Today Cathy is a grandmother. And I leave my child's home for several months. Then I read last year's entry for this date, about letting go of my mother. That happened too. The passage of time and the changing relationships between family members is very much on my mind.
Prayer: Lord, be with me as I face the days to come. Guide me in the path You would have me follow. Show me how to fulfill Your plan for those I love and for myself.
Amen
