First there is the heavenly phenomenon that awoke the Magi to the birth and led them to Bethlehem from Jerusalem. But there is the one who the star was for, Jesus. Christmas may not be the correct day, we may be off by a year or so for year one, but make no mistake the reason this celebration has lasted over two millennia is the reality of Jesus: foretold, born, lived, crucified, risen, ascended and one day returning. Each year we are reminded of one person among all of humanity that has changed more lives, given more hope, redeemed more people than any of us can conceive. Christmas is the joy of Jesus come among people and changing life for the better. God with Us!
