A light dusting of snow covered the lawn around the house the angel was visiting early on Christmas Eve. With translucent feathery wings she gently and quietly fluttered near a window, attracted by colorful shining lights within.
The Christmas Angel’s arrival was not surprising. This was a time of year for miracles to happen, as had been the birth of our Lord so long ago.
And more than being a miracle birth
Lessons the babe would to us impart
Would be just what we all needed to grow
A Radiant Loving Heart.
While fluttering suspended, looking in, the angel’s view opened on to people of all ages clustered around the brightly lit tree, sheltering over so gracefully a crêche of the newborn babe with Mary and Joseph. To the sides of the manger wise men, shepherds and sheep were paying respect to the babe who was bringing much needed spiritual insight and practical direction to the world.
Like a caring shepherd with his flock, the babe would grow to give us instructions in how to watch over and care for our family, community, and the world.
And what was that eternal message?
Give divine love to all by caring and sharing.
The angel was gladdened to see that the people gathered ‘round the Christmas tree and manger scene were enjoying each other’s company.
To make her presence known, like the sun radiates its light and warmth through glass, the angel accelerated her vibration to pass through the window pane emerging atop the Christmas tree, and in a microsecond slowed down to earth speed, vibrating in visible form.
The Christmas Angel’s message
The Christmas Angel’s presence atop the tree quiets our thoughts, encourages us to meditate and contemplate upon the miracle of divine love, caring love, to bring it into manifestation every day we live on earth, till we transcend, faster than the speed of light into the Divine Brilliance of harmony and peace, following the pathway set out by our Lord.
Dearest angel
Sitting atop my Christmas tree
For everyone to see
Stay bright and light within my heart
That the Lord’s message
I may impart.
