[FamilyofGod] Why Such a Lonely Reach?

 

Good Guys,

The Christmas season can cause some of us to reflect a bit on the losses in our lives as well as the great gains we've made as strugglers through the gift of God's grace.

Oddly, when I was writing this week I remembered a poignant song from Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol from way back in the '60s.  If you'd like to see the clip, I posted it with my blog piece this week.  I hope you are all having a blessed Christmas season already.

Here's the opening graph of the blog:

I don't know if I first saw Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol the night it premiered on TV in 1962 as the first-ever animated television Christmas special . . . but I know I saw it every time it came on after that.  It's funny what can speak to us and when, but as an eight-year-old in his first Christmas without his dad and his first Christmas as a sexually-molested boy, something about that lonely reach spoke to my little heart and it never let me go.
