when the star in the sky is gone, when the kings and princes are home, when the shepherds are back with their flocks, the work of Christmas begins: to find the lost, to heal the broken, to feed the hungry, to release the prisoner, to rebuild the nations, to bring peace among the people, to make music in the heart. -“Now the Work of Christmas Begins” by Howard Thurman, an African-American theologian, educator, and civil rights leader Today is the Baptism of Jesus, and is the last day of the Christmas season.
