Let the sleigh bells ring. Let the hymns ring out. Let the illuminated trees abound!
I love Christmas because somewhere, someone will ask the question:
“Why make such a fuss over a simple baby in a nursery? who was he? How does his birth affect me? »
And I love the answers I found. For example, I discovered that God knows the human condition very well. When I talk to him about deadlines, endless waits or difficult times, he understands me. He's been there. He lived it.
Because of Bethlehem, I have a Friend in heaven.
Or I understood that Christmas begins what Easter celebrates. The child in the cradle has become the crucified king.
Because of Bethlehem, I have a Savior in heaven.
These promises are at the heart of Christmas. Long after the guests have left, the carols have stopped and the light decorations have disappeared, these declarations of Christmas call.
Sit back and contemplate the strange and beautiful history of Bethlehem.
You can find there what I discovered: a life of hope.
