Last week was our last week of classes and our final devotional was as follows.
Musicians get very busy at Christmastime. There are extra concerts, church services, parties, etc., all of which require music.
Often we hear the complaint that the busy-ness and commercialism take us away from real devotion to Christ at Christmastime.
While the busy-ness of the Christmas season may distract us fom whatever routine of quiet time we may have, I think a healthier and more joyful approach to the situation might be to recognize that all the busy-ness, whether sacred or secular, is a reverberation of Christ coming into the world so many years ago.
Thus, as we go about the myriad of things we have to do in this season, we can engage in each of them worshipfully and joyfully as we remain mindful of Christ's coming that created this cultural rhythm that has endured for centuries.
