Have you noticed that God does a lot of talking at Christmas time? The first God-conversation with Mary was the one that started it all (Luke 1:26-33).
But then God spoke a second time – to Joseph (Matthew 1:18-21), then a third time to the wise men (Matthew 2:12) and a fourth (Matthew 2:19-21) and fifth time to Joseph (Matthew 2:22). He also spoke to Elizabeth, Anna and Simeon. God speaks repeatedly throughout the Christmas story.

It’s that time of the year again!! I love Christmas. I love the traditions we have made that are unique to our family.
I’m sure your family has created many too, and to keep these traditions going for our families, we need to be organised and prepared well in advance.
