Tucked amid the three trees is a moss covered shelter housing the babe of a lifetime. It is a remembrance of the birth of the One who saves humanity to eternity. The tree of pride gives way to humble means. The tree of humility carries the breath of God on the wind throughout the earth. The tree of grace remains as the mighty power of pure and simple love.
Lyra, my cat, stands watch and nibbles on the branches from time to time. A wonder of the miracle of baby Jesus, the Christ child, the reason for celebrations. Be in awe this Christmas for we have been given the gift of trees, mysteries, wonders, love and purrs.
There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit. Isaiah 11:1
