A low sun shining through trees onto a frosty tree lined path. The text reads: The sight of the star filled them with delight, and going into the house they saw the child and his mother Mary, and falling to their knees did him homage.โ

tabby cat sitting upright on narrow table in front of christmas tree. He is staring up, his sun and body dappled by sun. The star is directly above his head like he's wearing it.
close up of head of tabby cat dappled by sun, in front of Christmas tree, so it looks like he is wearing the star topper
sun low over hill between bare winter trees, flaring and creating coloured spots on lens
grey wagtail on icy shore of lake, in low sun
Wassail! Happy Twelfth Night. Here is Mikle staring out at the bright icy sun earlier waiting patiently to be crowned king for the day. Though who he is kidding? He may play the fool but we all know the household runs to his (mis)rule at all times. #Wassail #TwelfthNight #Christmastide #EpiphanyEve

O come let us adore him,
O come let us adore him,
Christ the Lord!

Followed by the Sunday Collect: "O God, who wonderfully created, & yet more wonderfully restored, the dignity of human nature: Grant that we may share the divine life of him who humbled himself to share our humanity, your Son Jesus Christ; who lives & reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever & ever. Amen." ~ Second Sunday After Christmas Day

Then pealed the bells more loud & deep:
"God is not dead, nor doth He sleep.
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With peace on earth, good will to men."

God rest ye merry gentlemen

Shepherds why this exultation?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
Say what may the tidings be
which inspire your heavenly song?

White text on color photograph. Lady Mary (Michelle Dockery) from Downton Abbey. There is an extremely large Christmas tree behind her, just out of focus. Caption says: "The tree stays up until Epiphany. You'll soon get used to the things are done here. Properly."
Happy 5th Day of Christmas!
Keep those trees up. ๐

I finished "Exit 8" as part of my #Christmastide catch-up.
I don't know whether or not it is my neurodivergence, but I experienced misphonia watching the film. The dialogue and music are either too loud or too soft. I guess it might be a deliberate choice, but, it was too much for me at the time.

Bare tree branches emanating from the left, in front of a night winter sky, pale blue at the horizon fading to deep blue at the top of the frame. A single star in the sky in the upper right corner of the frame.
Praise the MOST HIGH GOD, sun and moon; praise her, all you shining stars!

A 13th-century manuscript illumination, the earliest known depiction of Thomas Becket's assassination in Canterbury Cathedral
St Thomas Becket didnโt die for โreligionโ. He died because Christ is Lordโand no power gets the final word over the Gospel.
On this Fifth Day of Christmas: let our tenderness be real, and our obedience unbought.
