Very Merry 6th Day of Christmas

Merry 6th Day of Christmas! 

The gift of life and the beauty of Creation are represented in today’s meaning of the “12 Days” song. This second to the last day of the year has me reflecting on all that 2025 brought to me: lessons learned, new friendships, loss of several loved ones through death and estrangement, two new kittens and many moments of joy.  

I am thankful for the beauty and wonder God created in our world. Without it, the dark times would seem even more bleak. I am thankful for the light brought into the world by the Baby Jesus. Through Him, God has made all things new!  

Why Six Geese a-laying on the Sixth Day of Christmas? 

Six Geese a-Laying represent the six days of creation: 

• 1st Day: Creation of light and its separation from darkness
• 2nd Day: Creation of the firmament and division of the waters
• 3rd Day: Collection of waters (sea) and formation of dry land (earth); creation of plants according to their own likeness
• 4th Day: Creation of heavenly bodies in the firmament (sun, moon, and stars)
• 5th Day: Creation of sea creatures and winged fowl from the waters
• 6th Day: Creation of cattle, creeping things, and beasts from the dry land; creation ofmankind,male and female. 

For my readers, can you think of 6 things which you appreciate or are grateful for today? 

Merry Christmas, Karen
