Wise Men Still Seek Him 

Did you know that the chopping of the Christmas tree represents the death of Christ and putting it back up represents the resurrection of Christ? Did you know that the wreaths we hang are never ending circles that represent eternity? Candy canes were made to llok like shepherd hooks and the colors, red and white, represent Jesus' blood and purity. The gifts we give each other represent the three gifts the wise men brought for the Christ Child. 

So when you are running around trying to find "the perfect gift," stop yourself, take a deep breath and remember that we have already been given the perfect gift. Christ gave of His Life to us, so that we may have ours. 

He truly is the reason for the season!
