THE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS
Christmas is not a holiday package wrapped
with gay ribbon and holly. It is a time for
meditating, for recalling that night long ago
when Bethlehem cradled to its heart and gave
mankind the Redeemer of the World.
Christmas should mean kind thinking,
forgiveness, forgetting old cares, old
grievances, fears. It should be a time for
carving ideals and dreams; an hour for
weaving the golden threads of past blessings
into a mantle of daily thanksgiving.
Christmas is a gift transcending human
understanding; an angel choir echoing the
Song of Songs; imperishable glory from
the very heart of Heaven to the farthermost part
of earth.
Christmas is a boundless love melting all
grief, all heartache; hope, serene and
beautiful, lighting all darkness. Christmas is Peace Lorett Bauer Buckley
