Christmas is a unique time of year, with the decorations and traditions. And it is also is the time of year to discern what you value. What is your passion? What is your focus? As we recount the familiar story of the shepherds, we see that they responded in faith to the good news they received. They valued Christ. Do we value Christ above our stuff and our entertainment? Do we value Christ at Christmas, and all year? May we respond in faith to the good news God has told us!
