The Dawn of Grace

Never as this Christmas I sensed the power of the feast: the dawn that came filled with grace, a most-prayerful time, like an even-wider door into the heavenly pouring of Love and Life. I took this picture as I came down, the house still under the blanket of silence and sleep. Photos never capture the spiritual weight of a prayerful experience, but they serve to remind us of it. I posted this photo under the caption "The Dawn of Grace".
