Christmas

Well, its been a while since I wrote anything, and, of course, I only have 2 minutes to write now. So, what do I say? What profound piece of wisdom do I have?

Enjoy Christmas!

There, I said it. Don't worry if your house is clean enough, what you're going to buy for Aunt Sally, if your car will make it to Boston, etc. Just enjoy this beautiful season we've set aside to celebrate the Savior's birth. Enjoy your relationships, the music, the food, extra football, candlelight services, whatever. Just enjoy it because that enjoyment was bought with a price -the blood of the American military over the past 230 years. And also remember that a relationship with the one true God was bought with a price - the Blood of that little Baby in a manger, over 2,000 years ago.
