This First Sunday after Christmas can feel like a time in between. It is not Christmas Day nor is it New Year’s or even Epiphany. It is somewhere in between. We may even feel the lack of structure in our professional lives; do we go to work or take the day off? In these days and others God’s law is meant to give us structure and order. In fact, while salvation comes through the Gospel, the Law plays an important role in our lives. Notice the prominent role the law plays in the lives of Mary, Joseph and Jesus. And notice how God uses the law in your life as well.
