The greatest gift of all is God’s gift to us, His son Jesus. Thank you God, and Happy Birthday Jesus.
Remembering that He was born to give the gift of His life for our sins…that we are forgiven…let us give ourselves and others the gift of forgiveness.
It is “Time for Letting Go” https://amarquette333.wordpress.com/2010/12/20/time-for-letting-go/ and you will be richly blessed.

Let us remember the purpose of Christmas is to celebrate the birth of Jesus.

It’s fun to give and get gifts as part of the celebration, but not at the expense of going into debt to do so.
We can find ways to give the gift of ourselves to others by helping them in some specific way, meaningful to them. Help someone in need, someone you don’t even know.
The most important part of celebrating Christmas, is by simply sharing a special time and a meal with friends and family.
Don’t get me wrong, I love giving gifts, when I can, even some small meaningful item. For parents it is hard when they can’t afford to give gifts to their children. I remember a time when me and my brother were young and our parents explained that we would only get one gift that Christmas because money was tight. I don’t recall us being upset at all, we understood.
This is my early Christmas message to each and every one of you~
I wish for all of you throughout this special time…wisdom, peace, joy, caring, kindness, love for all, and safety. I wish you many blessings this Christmas, and Hanukkah to my Jewish friends, and throughout the New Year.
