"For unto us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders" Isaiah 9: 6
I LOVE christmas time. The smells, the music, the movies, the sights and sounds. It makes my heart skip a beat when october approaches in anticipation for the Christmas season. Usually everyone is home for the holidays and the traditions begin. My sister and I used to sleep in the same bed every Christmas eve and watch Christmas movies until we couldn't keep our eyes open any more. Having children changes things though. It has allowed me to appreciate the season in a much different light. I see the season for what it should be...a celebration of the birth of our saviour. It has always been so easy for me to overlook the real meaning for the Christmas season, but as I look as my children and thank the Lord every night for their lives...it always brings me back to what God gave us. Mary held her son just as I hold mine. God was preparing Him even then to save me. I want my children to appreciate this season not for the presents they get but for the LIFE they will receive because of it.
