Micah 6:8
Matthew 2:1-12
Yes, your life matters.
UPDATE AT BOTTOM OF POST
We all are still sheltering in place, but I'm here to keep you sane and entertained.
One could hardly ask for much more than that, now could one?
Today is Epiphany, the Twelfth Day of Christmas, the Kings' Day! This day is really the reason we give gifts at Christmas - to commemorate the gifts of the Kings or Magi to the Christ child.
Even though we tend to throw the kings into our nativity scenes, it was actually much later when they finally showed up with their gifts. And what gifts they were!
Gold - a gift for a king
Frankincense - a gift for a priest
Myrrh - a gift used to anoint a body - a corpse
There you go, king, high priest, sacrifice - the Lamb of God. Those kings really were wise men.
Keep Calm and Stay Away.
I'll be back tomorrow.
The mental health issues related to our lockdown and the pandemic are especially hard for people with depression. NAMI, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, has a 24 hour helpline: 800-950-6264.
On this date in 2013, the NFL reached an agreement to end their 113-day lockout of the players. This would be a great time to watch the behind-the-scenes documentary of that period, The Replacements.
