I loved Christmas 2012.

OK I admit it - I love Christmas - and this year was no exception. I love the colours, the lights and smells (Winchester Christmas market was great); I love the cheeriness of most people; I love the fun of presents; I love the family being around; I love the extra church meetings and inviting people along (3 lots of non-church neighbours and a friend came this year); I enjoy singing carols; I love Christmas dinner (this year we had 3 visitors from overseas for Christmas Day) and I love reading the Christmas story in The Bible. Every year I am impacted afresh and wonder again at the miracle and mystery of it all. Jesus Christ God's Son has come into the world to save sinners. Wow! I love it.
