I love Christmas!
I love the lights of Christmas.
I love the smells of Christmas.
I love the giving hearts of people at Christmas.
I love the foods of Christmas.
I love the family get-togethers of Christmas.
But most of all, I love the celebration of the birth of Jesus and what it meant for a sinful man such as me. My favorite scripture comes from Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. This scripture is a perfect description of the heart of Christmas. God gave us a gift that He did not have to give, because love gives. So in all of our hurry this Christmas, may we remember the greatest gift.
