*Quote: ”The first Christmas was far from perfect for anyone—except God. He saw through the difficulties to the heart of Christmas—to the eternal purpose of redeeming us through the birth, life, and sacrifice of Christ. He does the same with you: He looks past all the imperfections to your heart of faith in His Son. So whether this is your first or ninety-first Christmas with Jesus…don’t torment yourself with expectations that everything must go flawlessly…Instead, spend time with Jesus and invite His great love to transform your life. Rejoice that Jesus has taken away the burden to be perfect. And thank Him that His wonderful hope can be birthed in every situation and circumstance you face.”
