I don’t know about you, but I love when something I’ve heard a million times gifts me a new thought or fact or idea!
Christmas is one of those times where I’ve heard the story my whole life and multiple upon multiple times in a plethora of formats. I don’t come to Christmas each year thinking I will gain new insights. I welcome it each year to celebrate the truth of it! A tiny baby born in Bethlehem who teaches us what love looks like in human flesh. A gift from our Heavenly Father — the greatest gift!
But when a new moment occurs, which doesn’t happen every year; I am blown away by its content and how it relates to me! I’m blown away not because it is the most amazing fact I have ever heard, but because it holds meaning I didn’t see before. It widens and deepens my knowledge and experience. New thoughts enter the celebration for me, and I LOVE that!
