What is Christmas?
Is it the getting and giving of gifts?
Is it having fun and food with friends and family?
Is it an excuse to tolerate snow?
Is it about the decorations?
Is this really a time of peace and love?
Are we really celebrating the birth of a baby who was born over 2000 years ago and probably not on Dec. 25?
If Christmas is a time of holiday bliss, then why do a lot of the songs that we cherish are songs that deal with hardships, loss, and separations?
Is it possible that the greatest, attribute of Christmas is that no matter what hardships, losses, or separations that you are now enduring, there is a hope and love that can sustain you through these things?
