Merry Christmas!
It's not X-Mas, it's CHRISTmas. Today is the day people around the world wake up early to stockings full of goodies and presents under their Christmas trees; children smile, families gather, and suddenly it's like everyone gets along. Every year December 25th is a magical day and really and truly it is, but not just because Santa Claus travels around the world delivering presents. For me, I think it's a different kind of magical. For me it is magical that Jesus Christ came to Earth and suffered for our sins and died for us. So today I remembered one thing, an M&M. Someone told me about an interesting tidbit they found on the Internet: If you turn an M&M the "E" becomes an "M" and then a "3" and then a "W". These M&M's tell the story of Christmas. The "E" is for the East, where the star shown so bright. The "M" is for the manger where baby Jesus slept the night. The "3" is for the Wise Men bearing gifts and so they came. "W" is for worship, Hallelujah, praise His name. Remember the real meaning of Christmas. Christmas isn't about the gifts or even the holiday cheer, it's about our Savior coming to Earth and giving us the greatest gift of all, the atonement.
