On the sixth day of Christmas, our True Love gave to us…
…six women in Jesus’ genealogy. There is beauty in the fact that Jesus is not ashamed to identify with them. They are Eve, Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary (Matthew 1). They are Jews. They are Gentiles. They are saints. They are sinners. They are Jesus’ mother and grandmothers. They teach us that it is not about how well we are put together. It is about God’s plan. Our past in this life does not have to define us. Our future with Christ is of utmost importance. This is a gift of God.
