The Christmas story takes place during a census, which would have been an inconvenience for Mary and Joseph (Luke 2:1-3). But providentially this led to the Lord’s birth in Bethlehem.

In 1812 Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm first published their collection of old tales. Devoutly Christian, the brothers believed that "fairy tales are survivals of an ancient faith that goes back to the earliest times, a faith which is expressed in the pictorial representations of things that go beyond the senses."

When Jesus was only a few weeks old His parents brought Him to the temple, as was the custom. There they were met a man, Simeon, who held Jesus in his arms, blessed Him, and gave thanks. The image of the old man Simeon holding the new-born Jesus is a useful one to start the year off with. On the one hand we have someone reaching the end of his life. On the other a life just beginning. When we reach these important transitions it is important that we, like Simeon, can recognise the hope for the future and trust the Lord is creating something good even if we will not live to see it. | By Rev. Joel C Glenn | Westville, RSAThe Lord of Joy Has Come
