The ChrisTmas Cross


The Chrismas Cross

by Louise Bergmann DuMont

No matter how glittery the tinsel, no matter how bright the lights – the cross still sits in the center of Christmas.

No matter how delightful the carols, no matter how bedecked the halls – the cross still sits in the center of Christmas.

No matter how rich the fruitcake, no matter how grand the feast – the cross still sits in the center of Christmas.

No matter how warm the hearth, no matter how joyous the celebration – the cross still sits in the center of Christmas.

No matter how impressive the gifts, no matter how generous our bequests – the cross still sits in the center of Christmas.

For Christmas is not about what we do – it is about what He did.

Thank you for your thoughts on Christmas. Sometimes it is just amazing to me that God became human, went through all the agony, just to give us eternity in heaven...
Have a blessed Christmas.
