There is just something special about Christmas. Or Someone actually. For many of us believers, the reason for Christmas is Christ. And Christmas can never be truly Christmas without Him. The season can be enjoyed, it can be meaningful time spent with family and friends, it can be a most treasured holiday..but Christmas can only be truly celebrated with Christ, and Christ alone.
I was just thinking about it just now, 'it's going to be our four years' anniversary this Christmas.' And I smiled. The kind of smile I hope is reserved specially for Jesus. The one where a smile just comes onto my face as He fills my heart with joy and my mind with thoughts of His faithfulness and His goodness.
I'm really glad. Glad that He has blessed us with so much. That not only can we celebrate Christmas with Him and His people, we can also enjoy blessed times with our family and friends. I really praise Him for the treasured times spent with sharon, grace, yiwen and all the rest of my beloved friends. And of course, the times spent with my family=)
Indeed, I have lots to thank Him for:
Thank You for letting Christmas be Christmas
Thank You for my very loved ones
Thank You for the Christmas shopping, the breaks at Starbucks
Thank You for the laughter, the joy, the craziness
Thank You for the lights, the Christmas trees, the food, the drinks, the gifts
Thank You most of all, for the greatest gift You have given us-Jesus!
I wish you all a most blessed Christmas and a happy happy New Year!And I hope that someday, all of us will truly know and love the reason for this season.
Merry Christmas,
Jean.
