Food For Thought: With Christmas fast approaching we are so busy getting prepared. Christmas means so many different things to many different people. I think of Christmas as a time to reflect on Christ the gift God gave to all the world the gift of life. We realize it’s not about tinsel, wreaths, holly or mistletoe. Not even the gifts that lay under the tree. Let’s remember as we celebrate just what it’s all about and invite the Lord in to celebrate with us. He will always be the reason we celebrate. No substitute the world may offer can take that meaning away.
