Merry Christmas! My hope is that all of you experience the miracle of Christmas every day. Advent is over and the coming of the Messiah has finally occurred.

Imagine how Mary and Joseph felt holding their son for the first time! All their joy, excitement, and wonder! Probably many of those same feelings we have experienced holding a new baby or grandchild.  Just to marvel at God’s creation and hold a new life. To grasp the thought of how one tiny babe can bring such hope and promise to the world.  God is so good!

I hope all of you invite baby Jesus into your life, not just on Christmas, but every day. May your heart be filled with the blessings of faith, hope, and joy.
