'THE' SEASON


One of my favorite things of this wonderful season is the getting together with family and friends.  I love the kindness, the gift giving, the endless amount of food, the fun, the Christmas carols, the Christmas trees, the lights, the wrapping of presents, and yes, waiting the arrival of Santa Claus...and most importantly, remembering that ONE birthday that we are celebrating.  After all, it is He, Jesus, that we are remembering this season and I can't help but think of Him and the ultimate Gift that He as given to all of us.  Every single one of us.  He was born in such a humble manor and yet lived in a way that we all look up to.  His example.  His example...of teachings, of service, of selflessness, of kindness to all mankind, and most of all, sacrifice.  His life was dedicated to others.  To all of us.  What a blessing and a Gift.  The best Gift.


Merry Christmas...

Thank You Amee for this sweet reminder of how simple the Christmas message is... John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
