it's the most wonderful time of the year

Christmas is now less than a month away. i love Christmas; it's the most wonderful time of the year. i love Christmas movies and Christmas specials. i love Christmas music and Christmas lyrics. i love Christmas stories. i love to give and receive gifts and cards. i love spending time with family and friends. i love the food associated with Christmas. however, like the Grinch learns, Christmas means more than these elements. Christmas is the yearly celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Jesus truly is the reason for the season. the purpose of Christmas is Christ. have a merry Christmas!
