Not Just For Kids

Do you celebrate Christmas?

When I was younger, it seemed that kids had the best deal when it came to Christmas.

We would look forward to it all December and eat the little chocolates from the advent calendar. On Christmas morning, kids were the ones who seemed to wake up to filled stockings and presents.

Of course, not every child gets to experience this, and even fewer adults sem to celebrate in this way. But Christmas is not just for those who can afford it, or who still believe in Santa.

In fact, the story of Jesus being born is one which brings anticipation, hope and peace to all of humanity.

When the stress of buying presents is over, when the last of the Christmas lunch leftovers is finished, and when January rolls around,

Jesus is still our everlasting hope and joy.
