“Maybe Christmas Doesn’t Come from a Store”
You may all recall these words from Dr. Suess' book "How the Grinch Stole Christmas." It is a favorite story for many of us at Christmas time. The powerful message behind this story is that Christmas has a meaning that is far more important than the fancy paper, fun presents, and excited children. Dr. Suess shows how the Grinch realized that Christmas was about something more. For anybody interested in maybe learning a little bit more about Christ's birth, read these words spoken to some BYU faculty in the 1970's ("Maybe Christmas Doesn't Come from a Store").See Christ: The Real Gift of Christmas for more.
I know that Christ, the REAL Christmas gift, is the Son of God, the One who lived and died for us. He made it possible so that we can return to God's presence someday if we will just obey his words. I'm grateful for Him and his sacrifice for me. "Let earth receive her King!"
