Merry Christmas to all of you! I hope you are all having a truly blessed day. May you be surrounded by family if that makes you happy, or may you have peace, comfort and joy wherever you are. Today it is just the four of us. We opened our gifts to each other slowly and joyfully and then we finished making brunch. For brunch we had homemade caramel pecan cinnamon rolls hot from the oven, a wonderful breakfast bake with hash brown potatoes, homemade sausage, eggs and cheese in it, and a grape salad. It was yummy. I got a lot of nice gifts; a book, an apron, kitchen towels, sun catcher, wall hanging, a willow tree figurine, cds, etc. But the best gift I've ever received for Christmas is the reason we celebrate Christmas. For unto us is born this day a Savior! We all needed saved and only a perfect sacrifice would do it. So Jesus came for us. I like the song Go Fish sings about Christmas being about the cross. I have a cross hanging on my Christmas tree too. Jesus came and was born in a manger knowing that one day He would hang on a tree to save the world from their sins. And He died, knowing He would also rise from the dead to bring us new life and an eternal resurrection. That is the full Christmas story. I hope wherever you are and whatever you do for Christmas, that you will fully receive the greatest Christmas gift of all time.
