Happy Christmas!
Today we celebrate something wonderful, the birth of a small baby. And just like the joy that surrounds any birth of new life, it is an exciting thing to remember and share with the world. But this birth was so different from any other baby born in our world today, yesterday and in the future. From humble beginnings lying in simply a pile of straw, this baby would go on to challenge love and create a whole new level of love for the world that He so desperately wanted to save. With His whole being He lead a life purely for you. For you, and for me and ultimately for love. Little did those parents, shepherds and wise men know just what or who they were witnessing. Jesus Christ, the saviour of the world and my saviour and best friend, was born to show a furious and unstoppable love.
So I hope you all have a wonderful time with your friends and family, unwrapping your presents, eating too much and watching the inevitable BBC Christmas movie and double bill of Eastenders, but take this day as a gift. Enjoy time with those you are with no matter what the circumstances, be thankful (whoever you end up thanking) for what you have and above all, just love. Love today, love Christmas and love those who need it.
Amen.
