Merry Christmas!

I've been sitting here for a few minutes now, trying to think of something unique to write, something meaningful, something worthy of saying about a day such as today...but I can't. Christmas means so much more than any one thing...so much more than words can describe. Not that Christmas should have ever have become anything more than a celebration of the birth of God's Son on earth. Sometimes, in celebrating with friends and family, I think we turn it into a celebration of family. As Christians, I guess they do go hand in hand, as we wouldn't be able to be part of The family if it hadn't been for that day when God sent Atonement to earth.

Whatever.

I do hope that each one of you has a truly wonderful Christmas. Take some time to imagine how it must have been. I can only imagine the anticipation that Joseph and Mary must have been feeling before Jesus was born. I think it would have killed me :)

Take some time to read the story again...read it slowly...read all of the accounts of it...if it doesn't make you thankful, joyful...if it doesn't think "WOW!", then I don't know, something must be wrong ;) It's an amazing story that no person could have ever dreamt up...only God could come up with a script like that.

And all because he loves us.

Today rocks.
