Regardless of how commercialized, hectic, & selfish "the holidays" become, I will always be thankful for Christmas!
Honestly, I'm not a "gifts" person, so getting gifts doesn't excite me in the slightest. But, I'll tell you what does...
There's something wonderful about watching my girls fidget and squirm more and more the closer and closer we get to present time!
There's something wonderful about seeing the hustle & bustle of "the season" come to a sudden & screeching halt about 7pm on Christmas Eve.
There's something wonderful about the sounds and smells of family and food.
There's something wonderful about the tree and the lights.
There's something wonderful about presents and decorations.
But, most of all, there's something wonderful about all of these things that constantly remind me of Jesus' love for us, His gift to us, and His splendor.
They can make Christmas as commercialized & aggrandized as they want to, it will never compare to the glory & splendor of Jesus that we will one day see!
It's still (& will always be, in my opinion) the most most wonderful time of the year!
Merry Christmas!
