SABRINA
Maybe more than a new calendar marked Jesus' birth.
Could it be that postpartum depression began then as well? After all,
the day after Jesus was born - the angels were gone, gossip from lowly
shepherds of this new king was being spread amongst commoners, the wise
men were yet afar off, the smelly shepherds were back with the sheep
and there was this newborn housed with animals in an overcrowded city.
Fortunately, we know “the rest of the story”
but maybe we too have a bit of a letdown after Christmas. Most everything
including friends and family are gone, and with the exception of a few
unwanted pounds and mounds of used wrapping paper, maybe even the joy
of Christmas is gone as well.
But that tiny baby, born in a manger is ALWAYS with
us - no need for a letdown, no pos Christmas depression - the Reason
for the Season is also the Reason for our today! Happy Day AFTER Christmas!
