And so this is Christmas...

It's almost 9 pm. Another Christmas day is coming to a close. As much as people love and treasure this special time of year, I hear over and over how many feel a big sense of relief when Christmas is over. The joy of this wonderful celebration is sometimes (okay a lot of times) coupled with feelings of anxiety, financial and emotional stress. Bogged down by the chaos of Christmas, we can easily forget what Christmas is really about. First and foremost, it is a celebration of Jesus' birth. His birth symbolizes how it important it is to focus on having hope in our hearts. It's so easy to get depressed and down. But God put bright stars in the majestic sky for a reason. So that we can keep looking up in awe! : )

Merry Christmast to all of you!
