Today is December 25th, which is known around many households as Christmas. A truly wonderful celebration of Christ’s birth and time for families to come together once again. Many of us have wonderful holiday traditions this year, and enjoy feasts with the family. It truly is a great time.

In this holiday season don’t forget Christ and the natural world that sustains us all. Spend sometime observing the beauty of the simplicity of Christ’s birth in a hay manger in a cow stall. Go out and feel that cold winter air and think how it must have felt that cold winter night some 2009 years ago today. Take in a deep breath, and realize your taking in the same air that Jesus once did centuries earlier.

Today is a special day. Enjoy it.
