One of the unintentional side effects of doing our Advent box is that it actually slows us down. It takes the rush of Christmas and breaks it down into manageable pieces, as opposed to adding to the burden. It creates space to be with each other, to do the 'tasks' of the season all the while being framed by the mystery and waiting of Advent.
I will admit to a love of Amy Grant's Christmas music and this song is a perfect capture of the longing to slow down and enjoy the season.

I just heard this song in the car in the middle of a ridiculous day and my whole soul sighed...
