Merry Christmas

This is really my favorite time of the year. I love Christmas. Everyone is a little nicer, and it's easy to remember the blessings that we have in our lives because our thoughts go naturally to the birth of our Saviour. I often find myself think of Mary and Joseph. I wonder what was going through their minds on that night. I can only imagine how overwhelmed they must have been. Not only to be parents, but to be the earthly parents of the Christ Child. I was given a book from a friend of mine that has a special story, and scripture that goes along with it for the month leading up to Christmas Day. I look forward to bring this out every year, and reading from it. It really does get me in the right mind set for Christmas. It reminds me that while gifts and get togethers are so much fun, my focus needs to be on Christ, and the amazing gift that was his life. Like I said, I love Christmas, but what I love the most is the blessings that were brought into our lives because of Jesus Christ.
