Remembering folks the world over who are suffering this Christmas. These thoughts came while reading Leanne Friesen's The Grieving Woman and the Christmas Story - The Junia Project this afternoon.

Christmas
We sing the joy of Christmas
sing with over flowing hearts
while others echo somber telling
of worlds in pain and ripped apart
The other side of Christmas
where a promise goes unfilled
where children starve, parents die
and life's a bleak cold winter chill
Even that first Christmas era as
the world was blessed with Christ
many parents grieved sore losses
of their murdered baby boys
Please be present with us, Jesus
also amid life’s deepest pain, so we
may heal; move through the darkness
renewed to find your joy again
