Tomorrow is Christmas day

I took some time to reflect on why the world comes to a standstill on this day. Only on one other day in the year does the world come to a pause -New Year’s Eve. While this second day brings hope of a new beginning, Christmas is a special day because it is one of giving. I don’t know how many gifts you have received and given over the years, but the tradition never seems to get old. The joy that lights up the eyes of a child with a new doll and the meeting that ignites a smile on the face of a long-lost relative or friend is a priceless memory. God gave the world such a gift. But in this season, there will be those grieving, hurting and can’t be with friends and family. They wonder if Christmas was ever meant for them. Remembering them too is Christmas day. My take in this season is in what we have, who we are and what we can do; lets resolve to make our world a little better every day – this is my gift to you.

Merry Christmas everyone!
