We all Need Christmas!

Day 24 of my favorite *Christmas Thoughts*

C is for the Christ child, born on Christmas day
H for herald Angels in the night
R means our Redeemer ...
I is Israel
S is for the star that shone so bright
T is for Three wise men, they who traveled far
M is for the manger where he laid
A is All he stands for
S means shepherds came
And that's why there's a Christmas Day........

"So who needs Christmas? We do! All of us! Because Christmas can bring us closer to the Savior, and he is the only source of lasting joy....
"We need Christmas because it helps us to be better people, not only in December but in January, June, and November.
"Because we need Christmas we had better understand what it is and what it isn't. Gifts, holly, mistletoe, and red-nosed reindeer are fun as traditions, but they are not what Christmas is really all about. Christmas pertains to that glorious moment when the Son of our Father joined his divinity to our imperfect humanity"
