Blessed is the season...



“Blessed is the season that engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love.”                
 The American essayist Hamilton Wright Mabie (1846–1916) wrote.

We have waited for this week of love to arrive and we are invited once again to find our place at the stable where love is born again.


The following story has been passed across cyberspace this season…  

A Nativity Scene was created in a church yard. During the night the folks came across this scene.




An abandoned dog was looking for a comfortable, protected place to sleep. He chose the manger as his comfort.  No one had the heart to send  him away so he was there all  night.   

This ‘shepherd’ dog found a way to rest awhile in the love. May it be so for us all.

Blessed is the season...
