To sum up our feelings about the true meaning of Christmas, I don't think anyone could say it better than Charles Schultz, with some help from God:
"'And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them, and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them: 'Fear not, for I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be for all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, 'Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace, goodwill toward men'
That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.'"
We hope that you and yours will know the love of that baby wrapped in swaddling clothes who became a man and came to seek and save that which was lost. Merry Christmas.
