I know some will be at home while others will be out to visit family for this Christmas Holiday, so I am getting my wishes out early to all. Remember that the presents under the tree, the lights, the food, and trimmings have their place. The greatest gifts have already been bestowed to you in the love of our Saviour and the Son whose birth we celebrate, and the love of family and friends. Take care of and cherish them. As we see all too often in the news, there is an ever-present evil that wants what we have and won't think twice about taking it from us. The time we let pass is unrecoverable so invest it wisely in the lives around you! Don't forget to remember those who may not be able to make it to join family for whatever the reason. Call them and share with them your love. It might be the only brightness they see in Life and may make a profound difference in their days ahead. Merry Christmas and have a safe and joyous holiday!
