Happy holidays! Or better yet  Merry Christmas! There is something so captivating about the holidays. There's the lights, decorations, Christmas music, family, friends, and my personal favorite: hot cocoa! While it is a bit overwhelming to some, it is intoxicating to many others. Trees are dressed in various arrays of tinsel, bulbs and lights. Gifts are wrapped. Cards wishing well and prayers of love are sent abroad and there is this general spirit of generosity and goodwill that prevails. This spirit delivers warmth and love around the world every year. It inspires acts of kindness, pulls our human race together in an unprecedented way and moves us as a species closer to our best face. While the mythical mascot of this holiday is preparing his sleigh and satchel, to commit the largest B&E imaginable, the true reason of the season is already at work. Jesus is our gift from our creator. No shiny wrapping paper, no bows or frills, nor are there candied sweets and feasts of bread
