A moment of peace

It was so nice yesterday to visit the small  town of Saundersfoot, which for those of you who don't know is a small South Wales harbour town with a nice beach, a few pubs and cafes and just a handful of shops.
It was nice, for us, because the population and almost everyone else in the country seemed to have headed for the main shopping towns to continue the frenzy of buying 'stuff' for Christmas. The place was almost deserted, it was peaceful, the sun was shining on the sea and 'all seemed well with the world!'
It's so easy to be drawn into the hustle and bustle of the commercial Christmas and fail to stop and consider the real gift that was at the centre of the whole story. Take time out in the next few days and just relax in the presence of God to recharge the batteries!
