Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, Quest! I hope you are having an amazing one.

As most of you probably did, I went to Mass today (well, midnight), but, anyway, the priest said some really cool things that I wanted to share with you:



Christmas, you might be shocked to hear, is NOT about giving. It's about recieving: recieving God. So, the giving is just something that happens because of our joy at recieving God, and wanting to give something, since he did, too. I think one of the things that happens around Christmas is we get caught up in either the commercial stuff, or we're too busy doing service and getting gifts for others to be with God, which is almost just as big of a problem.

Also, Christmas is the Birth of Life. Because of Jesus, life has come into the world, and it's here to stay.

Merry Christmas!
