Here we are sitting around simply being. Yesterday we gave gifts and we shared stories; we laughed, we ate, and we played. Today - just being together.
It's Christmas - the WORD BECAME FLESH. The scripture does not say that on the day Jesus was born that he performed any great activity. (Incidently the day was most likely not Dec 25th... but that's besides the point.) No, on the day Jesus was born all he did was sleep and do other activities that babies do. So to celebrate Jesus' birth let's do the same. Let's rest. Let's enjoy. Let's sleep the afternoon away.
Be careful not to get so caught up in activity that you forget to enjoy the simple pleasure of being together.
