The Gift of the Magi
This world may not in the least suspect it needs a savior, but Christ comes as he came to Mary herself, wanting to stretch us physically, emotionally, and socially. Christ comes with the pronouncement of great sacrifice and pregnant impossibilities, yet when the humble and foolish give everything to receive him, they find themselves the wisest. So it’s fitting that we end 2015 and begin the New Year with a call to live a worshipful life.
