Just Box It Up
By · Leave a Comment
In many countries, this is Boxing Day. This special day after Christmas is a tradition started by elite Britishers of giving gifts to those who serve them throughout the year. The gifts are boxed and I suppose that’s where the name comes from. This is also St. Stephen’s Day, in honor of the first Christian saint.
Wouldn’t it be great if this Boxing Day, we could take empty boxes, fill them with all our cares and worries, all our mistakes and heartaches, all of the negative thoughts and worrisome reflections of the past year and just send them away somewhere? Not to anybody else, but into oblivion, never to raise their ugly heads again.
Christmas 2021 is past. It is time to bundle up the old year and think about tucking it, along with this year’s Christmas decorations, away. It is a time to thank God for many blessings, and look forward to 2022, with hope and faith.
