Do you wish Christmas would come and go quickly or do you look forward to it with great enthusiasm? Do you believe Christmas has lost its meaning given all the materialistic connotations associated with it or does it still have a special place in your heart?

Christmas was amazing when i raised my 3 children,We loved everything about it but as they became adults and left home ,then divorce followed.It seemed Christmas lost its meaning within myself.Now eight years on,I have found thr true meaning to its Jesus my saviour,yes i have always known its about Jesus ,now I have a personal relationship with Him.I can forgive myself for all the christmas i missed with my 7 grandchildren,i can accept I would rather serve the less fortunate on this day knowing my family are cared for and served by other family.This year im travelling to NSW to spend 2 weeks with the grandchildren.Praise God for this moment in life Amen xx
