A merry and blessed Christmas to you all!
I have often wished I could step into a favorite story and experience it first-hand, at least for a time. How humbling and thrilling, at once, to know that the Author of our story stepped into the world among His creations!
We have no grounds to say that God cannot understand, that He hasn’t experienced what we have. He was born. He grew up. He suffered. He cried. He knows, and He has felt what we feel. That is an amazing, nearly unbelievable gift – such a Christmas gift to each one of us.
May you all enjoy the great gifts that are given to each of us at Christmas, and may you have a blessed and prosperous new year!
