Dr Meryl Herr from the Max De Pree Center for Leadership reminds us that it can be easy to overlook the reality of our need for Jesus and to fully celebrate the hope offered by Him at Christmas.
"It can be easy to overlook or dial down the volume of the pain and suffering within and around us. Deliverables and deadlines can drown out the cries of our hearts. The frenzy of end-of-year fundraising and next-year forecasting can distract us from our need to slow down. If we’re not careful, work can anesthetize us, making us numb from what we deeply need to feel."
