Merry Christmas, everyone! It’s Christmas Eve and all is busy-busy – getting ready for tomorrow’s celebration! Wrapping presents and finishing the last bits of decorating always puts that excitement of my second favorite holiday in my heart! I’m so thankful for the many blessings God has given me this Christmas season to celebrate His son’s approx. 2,012 Birthday!
Every year at Christmas I love to the read the story about the first ever Christmas which happened around 4 A.D. You can read the whole story in the book of Luke, chapter 2, verses 1-20!

Does your family have any special Christmas traditions?
Have you ever read Luke 2 and imagined what it was
like for Mary or the shepherds?

Christmas Eve is my favorite holiday, all the bustle before. There’s a flood of memories right around that time. Our family goes to my grandma on my dad’s side for Christmas Eve. When my cousins, and I were younger, we watched The Year Without A Santa Claus.
A new tradition I’ve made for myself on Christmas Eve night is to look at the stars and remember how far God has gone for us. The life He’s given us. His presence among the trials we face.

It’s very nice, one of the few times I see my family. It’s been over a year and half since I’ve last been able to visit my home state.
