The beautiful message and gift of the Savior doesn’t have to be enjoyed, treasured, and remembered only once a year at Christmas. It can become a permanent fixture in our souls. It is something of great worth and substance that can permeate our very being. In a world that considers the transitory, the disposable, and the brief good enough, Christ is the very best gift that has ever been given in the entire history of mankind.

Christmas reminds us to keep our promises to God.
