from The Greatest Gift Unwrapping the Full Love Story of Christmas
by Ann Voskamp
Every little thing is going to be okay because God is working good through every little thing.
All that's happening is happening to make miracles. The mundane is what's making miracles.
God comes through mangers. The mundane holds miracles. Every little thing is going to be okay - you have a Kinsman-Redeemer who takes you and is redeeming everything. The miracle of gifts is always unfolding under the impossibles.
"Joys are always on their way to us," assures Amy Carmichael. "They are always traveling to us through the darkness of night. there is never a night when they are not coming."
The miracle of gifts...is never not coming.
When your Father's hand isn't readily apparent, it's only because He's readying gifts. Gifts always come out of the unseen and hidden places.
It's a miracle itself - how you don't have to order a Christmas miracle. The miracle of Love is happening all around you.
Christ coming freely, willingly, now - coming unseen into everything.
