"If your Christmas didn't go according to plan, whether in diminutive or drastic ways, it's not too late to embrace a holy expectancy for how the Lord plans to show up for you and fill in the gap between what you expected and what you experienced. If your own plans went sideways, I hope you'll join me in saying, "God, if you redeemed all of humanity through the birth of your Son, you can redeem this day, this hour. Show up in this moment for your glory and for my benefit and for the benefit of my loved ones."
