The amazing gift of Christmas is wrapped in the love of God for the whole world. How could one gift could be so large in scale that it could cover the entire world? Well, not only is the gift so large as to cover the entire world, the gift has been continually offered non-stop for 2,000 years.
The glory of Christmas is that we see the glory of God in the gift of Jesus Christ. The world had no idea of the nature of that first Christmas. As the whole world slept in a dull daze the skies lit up with the glory of God. Angels filled the sky praising God and saying, "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests" (Luke 2:13-14). The glory of Christmas is still with us today. All are invited to open God's gift still today.
