The True Joy of Christmas

I love Christmas season with all its traditions, decorations, songs, and festivities.  But the older I get, the harder it seems to get to keep it all spinning as such.  All of those material trapping are fine, but it’s not where we should derive the true joy as we celebrate Jesus' birth.  The true joy comes in knowing that Jesus, our Savior, was born, died, and was resurrected again to new life so that we may know beyond a shadow of doubt that God loves us and is always with us.
