It was my pleasure today to see Christmas in its finest state today.

At church we had it all, from Carols, Candle light and farmyard animals to cap it all off.

But it wasn’t the sight of flickering light.

It wasn’t the smell of hay.

It wasn’t the sound of bells ringing out.

It was the children, who with their biggest smiles running up and down the eisles completely oblivious to the faces of adults trying to shoosh them, frustrated that their own attention had been taken away from the message trying to be shared.

For me, I wanted to join them, having a great time ducking in and out of seats, chasing, enjoying ourselves in the company of Jesus.

For all of you who may attend a Christmas service somewhere in your home town this year, remember the children. Remember the fun. And remember what Christmas is all about.

Jesus.
