When will Christmas be over?

Tuesday's Grand Connection Thought

by Mary May Larmoyeux

Last week I found myself thinking, When will Christmas be over? As soon as those words danced through my mind I was sorry for them.

What is Christmas any way? It's not presents, and Santa's, and rushing through the mall. It's a baby ... the God-man ... Jesus Christ who came to rescue us from our sin.

More than 2000 years ago Jesus offered a hurting world eternal hope. His offer is still valid today.

Christmas is a great time for us, as grandparents, to talk with our grandchildren about Jesus Christ. He was no ordinary baby. Isaiah 9:6 calls him "Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

How could anyone ever want Christmas to be over?

Merry Christmas
Mary
