CHRISTMAS 2006
Dear,
Christmas
is many things to many people--from the eager, wishful, materialistic grasping
of a child for a present to the deep spiritual thankfulness of the mature heart
for the gift of a Savior. My Christmas
greeting this year includes that whole range--newborn to mature heart. If there
is one common denominator, perhaps it is
this: Christmas is LOVE. I want
you to know that I LOVE YOU VERY MUCH.
Christmas
is the time when the bonds of family love go beyond distance and “hurry/worry”
that the season brings. It is a time
when love of family rises above the petty day-to-day irritations, and doors
swing open to give and receive expressions of appreciation and affection.
May your
celebration of the first Christmas bring you peace and joy on this special
clay, and create memories to cherish for years to come. It is
my wish for you that the peace and joy of that first holy night be yours this Christmas,
and may we all feel a special closeness to Him whose birthday we commemorate.
Please,
always remember that I love you. Best
wishes for a wonderful Christmas.
Love,
Grandma Bateman
