Preparing Him Room

Preparation began a month ago

Such a grace from God this was--

 my soul needed--

yes needed

 some extensive purging 

so that I had room

for the Christ

this Christmas

I so yearned to move through

 Christmas

with a heart that was free

to wait for and anticipate His coming 

Not cluttered 

with so much "other"

or pressured

with too much "doing"

But 

aware

and

focused

and

wise

and

centered 

on 

the One who is coming

His coming is to set us free!!

He has already begun.
