L is for love


 
Right at the heart of Christmas there is love.  

Love shines on despite tangled lights, overcooked sprouts or dreadful jokes from crackers.

Love is hidden in wonky gifts made by children, jumpers lovingly knitted by grans, and hours spent by dads assembling easy-to-put-together toys.

Love sustains us through traffic jams or train cancellations as we struggle to join our loved ones. 

Love is in community events, making sure people who are elderly and infirm can get to church or Christmas concerts.

Love is in increased donations to food banks and charities.

Love is served up with the turkey and Christmas pud eaten at home or taken to a housebound person.

And love is available to every one of us, wherever we are.

May you know love this Christmastide and always.
