As wonderful and cherished as our traditions are, they are far outweighed by the true meaning of this holiday. Most of us have heard (and said) that “Jesus is the reason for the season.” As traditions, styles, and customs change, one thing remains the same. The very old story of the birth or our Lord has been handed down through the centuries and has never gotten stale or out of date. Jesus’ reason for coming to earth, as had been foretold, was the salvation of humanity. This will always be a reason for celebration.
