The days following Christmas and Boxing Day can often be an odd change of pace from the rush that precedes Christmas. It can also be a time where we can take a chance to rest, to reflect on the year past, on the year yet to come and to spend some time with God in prayer. What are you thankful for this year? And what have you got still to look forward to?

This reflection was written by James Cathcart, 'Star Shards'. This video is part of our series of short videos of Christmas poems and prayers.
