Christmas is such a beautiful day of the year regardless of the weather! For a brief moment in time, we cease normal daily activities and concentrate on love, family, and friends. We focus on the meaning of Christmas.
Many of us are blessed to spend Christmas with the people we love the most. When our loved ones can't be with us, we call them, Zoom or Skype with them so we can still share that day with them. We stay connected with them while we open gifts, sing Christmas carols together, or even eat our separate meals together.
We also reflect on memories of Christmas's past and the loved ones who are no longer with us. The memory of them is a tremendous treasure even when our hearts are still breaking. This reality, perhaps more than any other, prompts us to embrace the loved ones still here with us, hold on a little tighter, and remember to say "I love you!"
Christmas is also a time for forgiveness and reconciliation. After all, the real reason for Christmas is the celebration of the gift of redemption and salvation.
"And the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of the great joy which shall be for all the people: for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord'." Luke 2:10-11
On this Christmas day, may you and your family be blessed and your hearts touched by the Creator who loves you with a love that surpasses all understanding.
We Wish You All A
Very Merry Christmas!
