I agree. Christmas to me is about gathering with family, celebrating Jesus’ birth and eating good food. Its not about the gifts. I already received the greatest gift of all - eternal life so nothing else could match that. However, I did enjoy buying gifts for my little nieces and nephews and seeing the joy on their faces. Because He first loved us, we love Him! Because He gifted His Son to us, we should gift His Son with our spiritual gifts! Truly Christmas has motivated soldiers to cancel war, for parents to sacrifice for their children and to instill a sense of anticipation and wonder world wide. All without benefit of having the Lord's correct birth date! Go figure. Again it is truly a magical time of year! And though faith and fantasy utilize the same brain cells, our fantasies are better directed towards glorifying God, awaiting His return and longing for the Rapture! IMHO. And even fantasizing about a divine disclosure! SORRY, my bad! Indeed CHRISTMAS: More of Christ! TR Lee, that is such a precious memory and I love the nativity, yes, indeed maybe we will see each other very soon, I take Sunday
