All I Want for Christmas

In my deepest depths all I want for Christmas is the presence of God in my life. There can be no greater longing in my soul and there can be no greater gift in my life.

Not that I don't feel God's presence and love in my life. Not that I can't look back, over and over again, and see God's involvement like the aroma of a fresh cut Christmas tree. Not that I can't point to beautiful moments in my life where God's sweet voice called to me. I can.

All I want for Christmas is to be filled once again with the peace that comes from knowing that our loving Creator cares for me, my loved ones and the whole of humanity. I long for this every Christmas; don't you?
