But first comes Christmas Eve......12/24/2008
Before that Christmas Adam......12/23/2008
No matter how fast the years go by, and I get older not younger, my hart still skips a beat when I think of Christmas Morning! When I was a child I could not wait to see the shiny new toys. My first year of marriage I could not wait to see my wife smile as she open every present. When I became a Daddy I loved watching my boy's bright faces when they open their gifts from Santa. When I became a father in law I saw my sons joyful harts when they made their wives smile on Christmas morning. Soon there will be two more reasons to look forward to Christmas day. God is good, he got us through another hard year, answered prayers and blessed us with a gift of new life's in the year to come.
What Child is this? God came to earth as a baby, wore flesh just as we do, he then pointed the way home and said; "follow me".
We give gifts, to honor Him and His perfect gift. For a moment we stop being selfish and give for the pure joy of it. Just as our Lord did once upon a Christ Born Night.
Gifts should not come from the wallet on Christmas day or be a burden because you had to pay. So take thought of what you get to give and wrap in pretty ways, because only gifts that come from the hart, will bring joy now and always!
Merry Christmas
