“My idea of Christmas, whether old-fashioned or modern, is
very simple: loving others. Come to think of it, why do we have to wait for
Christmas to do that?”
― Bob Hope

God is love
Christmas is, or so we say
When God came to earth
To dwell among us
To weave into our souls
His very essence
Which is love
It is a wild story
More than a little bit weird
Full of scruffy dirty homeless people
Standing in animal dung
Saluting an infant child
Born in poverty
the one who showed us all how to be fully human
It stretches our credulity
And yet
There is that love thing
In the end it is not that complex
We are designed to love
God came to help us be who we were created to be
People who love
so let us love
and love
and love some more
this day
every day
let us love
casting out fear
destroying hate
dispelling the darkness
so
let us
love
and love
this day
every day
Merry Christmas
