The greatest story . . .

I am amazed at how we overshadow the birth of Jesus Christ with the commercialization of Christmas. Artificial snow is sometimes more important than loving our neighbors.

Yet, it is during the holidays that we do take time to encourage each other. We do take time to love each other. Wouldn't it be nice if the entire month of December could be a long celebration of God and His love to all men, women, and children?

The Angels celebrated the birth of Jesus in just such a grand manner. They told the shepherds that were taking care of their sheep about the birth of Jesus. They told how this would bring peace and goodwill to men (women and children).
