Great post Ruth,<br><br>Yes, some people put the [color:red]MISS</font color=red> into Christmas (Christ-MISS) and make it a [color:red]MESS</font color=red> and [color:red]MISS</font color=red> Christ altogether (I speak of Christians here for others MISS Him anyway and their lives are already a spiritual MESS, but for the grace of God, here go I)!<br><br>My prayer is that all of us have Blessed Christmas, not only during this Christmas season--for it is not seasonal, but throughout our entire lives. May we once again hear the Christ-MESSAGE of Christmas, that He was born of the virgin Mary, lived a perfect and sinless life, was crucified, buried, arose, ascended, and sat at the right hand of God the Father. He lives!<br><br>May God Bless!
