MPj04387200000[1]What is “a Christmas Day?”  I invite you to consider an addition to the view offered by the Christmas story, a view that can make every day Christmas for you.

Can you allow yourself to accept that the significance of Christmas is even the birth of Jesus? It can be so much more. It can be that the Christ was revealed. It is a wonderful time of love, respect and gratitude for Jesus’ birth as he had the courage to reveal to the world the secret of a holy consciousness that is always present. 

 As we read and hear the Christmas story every year, eventually it goes beyond our individual minds to the part of us that can be awakened.  Many men and women go through their entire lifetimes without this area of consciousness ever being awakened.  It is available to them always.

A Christmas Day is a day of renewed dedication to the nature of God and prayer. We can live with our intellectual understanding, practicing it until we experience our own Christmas morning, a morning of spiritual rebirth, a dawning in our consciousness of the nature of the Christ.

An influential teacher in my life, Joel Goldsmith, wrote:

“The birth of the Christ is your Christmas Day and mine. It is that particular moment in which there is something in the nature of an awakening or in the nature of an awareness in which you realize that something is now functioning of which you heretofore were unaware. It may only be in fleeting glimpses. It may be in a few individual experiences, but for all, the experience is the same. …

Realize within yourself the Christ, the Christmas Day. Let every day be a Christmas Day of realization, and then loose that Christ into the world and let It touch those who are prepared.”

I wish you the joy and wonder of a Christmas Day, this day and every day.

Much joy and many blessings,
Rhoberta
