CHRISTMAS EVE
“It’s almost time, Mum!”
My daughter always looks forward to these visits with the angels on each Christmas Eve, and was impatient to start. The evening had turned to a deep, still pink, and as darkness encroached the landscape, we ventured forward to the place where our journey always began.
These journeys started many years ago by chance, one Christmas Eve, when I was in the garden. It was a particularly beautiful night here in Australia. Stars were breaking through the dusk sky, and the odd bird chirped a final good night. After a warm day, the air was still and balmy, and peace seemed to linger. As I watered the garden, I felt a close affinity to my plants, and I felt deeply happy, after all it was Christmas, one of my favorite times!
The warm stillness seemed to wrap itself around me like velvet. The fragrance of the plants seemed stronger and sweeter --- and then I heard it --- singing! A choir of such purity and perfection filled every space in and around me. Voices so beautiful with their harmonies and sweetness, I knew I was hearing the angels sing their joy to the One whose birth we were celebrating, and I felt a peace and love so intense, I knew I walked with them.
The moment passed, but the beauty of the experience stayed with me, and I felt that I would visit this space each year from then on. At that time, I understood that as men opened their hearts to Christ, the energy they created opened the gates to heaven, and that anyone who chose to listen and feel, would be welcome to enter.
Thus, Catherine and I choose to enter each Christmas Eve, and each year we travel to places filled with radiance and joy the first time we did this together, we were taken to the stable where we kneeled before the Christ child. The smell of hay followed us back to this now time, and it was then Catherine knew she really had been there.
Christmas is a time for miracles and if we believe—anything is possible.
Each time we are gifted the best the Christmas Spirit can offer, and seeds of love and wonder are sown into our hearts. When we return, the gifts of wisdom nurture our souls and add a greater depth to our understanding.
It is a simple thing to walk into the arms of the Christmas song. As so many enfold the Christmas spirit at this time, I feel the collective energies are more easily reached—one of love and harmony with the Christ—birth of love once more. For us, it has become a special ritual we always look forward to and always feel so blessed by the union. Join us, on dusk, wherever you are, and feel with us the wonder that is the true Christmas.
I hope you all have a wonderful and most blessed Christmas
