Blessings abound at this time of year - festivals - celebrations - gatherings - with family and friends - impromptu meet ups - all arraigned by Our Lord. It does not matter if you are a believer or not - there are no coincidences - everything that we have - receive - comes either directly or indirectly from God. After all - He is the Author - the Creator - the One who wills everything in our lives. The Magic of the Holidays - Hanukkah - Christmas - Kwanzaa - Diwali - all originates in the blessings that God sends upon all His people. We may celebrate different days - feasts - primarily due to cultural and language differences - but in all - signs that God - however we call Him - are meant for all of us.
As we end this year and look forward to the next adventure that we call the New Year - we need to pause - take stock - look around - ask ourselves - what will be my goal - purpose - to make 2022 a wonderful year - for all. Do it now - while you have the time
