Christmas time

Here it is the night before Christmas and I'm laying in the floor of my grandparents living room playing wheel of fortune against my mom on our iPhones as we sit in the same room. This Christmas I just feel so blessed with just everything, from my family, to my friends, to being healthy and having a roof over my head. But most of all I'm thankful for Jesus. This Christmas has been so different. Yes, I have been raised in a Christian family where I was taught the real meaning I Christmas but this year it's just seemed to click like no other year. I'm just sitting here imagining what 2000 something years ago the world was awaiting the birth of the Savior. I know like just saying it, it doesn't sound like much...but just sit and imagine...the One...the promised One...it was finally God's timing for Jesus to enter this world. I just...the more I sit and imagine about it...the more chills it gives me...Jesus coming into this sin-filled world. Just think He left Heaven...for us! That's just unfathomable to me. Now this is not even close to comparison but I think of it similar to leaving Hawaii and going to the desert or to like Antarctica. And now only did he choose to come here but he chose to come here and pretty much be tortured and abused and murdered for our sake. For us! Because He loved us. And I know I think that's Easter not Christmas. But they go hand in hand. And this Christmas I'm just in complete awe of this Savior who loves me more than anything. And this Christmas I refuse to get wrapped up in anything unless it is Jesus. That's it....JESUS!
