Standing In the Laundry Tub of Christmas

I am standing in the laundry tub thinking as I look out the window something is wrong with this picture that you now have of me........... ? It is a question of a created image and the perceived consequences It is a reference to the Christmas approaching yet again and as we ponder and get caught up in the hurricane of end of season activities parties, functions buying presents organizing holidays booking accommodation checking cars, boats, caravans....... ? We block out eliminate the real reason for all this mayhem Jesus Christ was born to save us from all this....... ? Still standing in the laundry tub one foot on the ladder the other in the tub to finish painting this window of opportunity this rare raw but real moment where heaven comes to earth in this moment where eternity is and it really is graciously given for all of humanity Now my foot is getting wet the tap is dripping..... ? It will all wash out as we are cleansed in the laundry tub of Christmas.
