"Little Christmas"...


In many countries January 6th, Feast of the Epiphany, is even BIGGER than December 25th! In Puerto Rico it is called, "Tres Reyes" - the Three Kings. In Roma the Creche is still the center of attention at the Vatican. In the Eastern Churches the feast is celebrated today, not on the previous Sunday - a custom we've adopted in the West. Today, in many parts of the world, gifts are exchanged in keeping with the gold, frankincense and myrrh.


What gift have I to offer Him today? Those gifts were so wonderous and royal. Mine don't feel quite as shiny today. Maybe, all He wants is my heart. Yes, I think so. My heart...your heart...the perfect gift!
Blessings and love to you all...
