This week I’m thinking about Mary and three spiritual practices that may help us prepare for Christmas. You can read the first in the series here if you want.
As I write this I’m in a lovely setting, looking out over our snowy Minnesota – an outward picture of peace and calm that is definitely not what I’m feeling inside. In my fingers and toes and stomach is… fear – that indefinable tingly, insufficient, I can’t get it done emotion. I need to do, to create, to produce and I don’t have it in me. I’m not enough.
Is that feeling more common at Christmas than at other times of the year?
