Christmas always brings something special to me. Its as if the world pauses for a moment to reflect on the year that just passed, whether its been good or not so good. But one of my favorite things is when special things happen that would not happen other times- families and friends come together to celebrate the birth of Jesus, the Messiah. To some it might be the only time they'll ever go to church or think of doing a good deed for someone in need. To others it might be the only day that people set aside their differences and just enjoy the wonderful moment this season brings. Though it may seem strange that these things only happen on Christmas (wherein it should have been happening all the time), for me, at least it happens.
In this season, my heart and my prayers go out to families...Families who have experienced tragedy in the past year, whether a lost of a loved one, a job, their home or anything else they hold dear; families who are broken, who are in despair because of an emotional disconnect within their relationships, especially to the children that suffer from their parents separation; families who have everything in the physical but lack in their love for one another, and also for families who choose to love one another in spite of the hardships and misunderstandings. I pray that God's agape love may truly abound in this season and the rest of the year to come...because only God's love never fails... :)
Merry Christmas, everyone, and a Blessed New Year to you and your family!!!
