This holiday season can serve as a source of anticipation and wonder, an invitation to open to joy. Joy is always present, although it is sometimes obscured or forgotten, buried beneath the surface. Yet when we find it, it serves as a medium for healing. This Sunday, we are reminded of this invitation, both to delight in the magical and awe-filled, and, perhaps even more importantly, to revel in those ordinary joys – embracing the holy ordinary.
