the ongoing advent of Jesus, our Savior

The trappings are fun, the holiday exciting, but more than that, I feel it has significance not lost in the glitter, not really.

 It is the birthday of Jesus. And it is good to remember that the carpenter's son was born, and taught, and died so long ago and yet is so alive, that we celebrate His birthday.

Merry Christmas! 
  Christ Jesus, we celebrate your first advent and await  your second one with great expectation.
Immanuel, God with us.
