Christmas is not always a festive season for some among us. Many people have a difficult time being festive because they have lost a loved one or they are separated from their family due to incarceration, military duty and some are even homeless.
While you are out and about trying to purchase that special gift, remember those who are in need of the gift of hope in their time of hopelessness.
That hope is that in our times of gloom and despair, we can alleviate our fears and subdue the sorrows that trouble us and seems to never end. You see, we can take comfort in this certainty: although The Lord may not always take us around our troubles, if we follow Him wholeheartedly, He will lead us safely through them.
May the Christ in you renew the Christmas in them. That is a gift that we all can give and a gift that we all need to receive.
Merry Christmas to you all.
