The light came into its own creation, and yet people received it not. And from this fullness we have all received, grace upon grace. Christmas time is always a wonderful season. It's one of my favorite times of the year. Families get together.
Most people get presents.
I enjoy all the carols, and all the decorations. I enjoy all of the silly stuff that has accumulated and stuck to the basic story over the centuries. I like getting kissed under the mistletoe. I like peanut brittle, and fruit cake, and all that stuff. And I love the story of the shepherds and the manger.
