Christ mass is a reminder to us that we have been given a gift that means so much: the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. God's grace doesn't just make itself known through the obvious like the fact that anyone who places their trust in Jesus Christ will be spared from God's judgment. Rather, it manifests in other ways like peace in society and prosperity. God's grace through Jesus Christ wasn't just a promise of a future pardon, but a promise of protection for those nations that embrace it. As you celebrate Christmas, think about that, and realize that you might have more to be thankful than just what we are normally told to give thanks for.
Merry Christmas

A blessed Christmas to you and your family, Mike.
And that Huckabee video: sheesh!
Same to you and yours, jimmy.
Hope you had a Merry Christmas.
I know I did.
It seems we are finding similar truths in our varied walk. Sometimes, perhaps often, I find no small humility in it all. I hope many of the graces are yours, within, without, around, and about, this Christmas and the rest of your time here.
Merry Christmas, Mike!
Merry post-Christmas to you too, Abe.
