Christmastime is Here!


My Thoughts on Christmas

Can you believe it? It is already at the end of the year, and Christmas is upon us tomorrow in most countries. Christmas means a lot of things -- presents, family time, Christmas decorations, traditions, etc. — but one thing about Christmas needs to be reiterated year after year: Jesus is the reason for the season! Without Jesus's birth in the manger with parents Mary and Joseph nearby, Christmas would not be a holiday! In the advent season, four candles represent HOPE, PEACE, JOY, and LOVE. On Christmas Eve, a larger fifth candle is lit to represent Jesus's birth. I hope you enjoy your traditions with family and friends and to keep Jesus in your mind on Christmas day, for you are blessed with His love and sacrifices. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
