This is the time of year when we normally hear lots of Christmas music in every store, and we also see lots of decorations for Christmas. In the past, it has been the time of year when folks are rushing around, going from store to store to make purchases for Christmas presents. Now, most of that hustle and bustle doesn’t exist because folks are buying online, which hurts the small storefront businesses.
Actually, the availability for Christmas stuff in the stores began this year before Halloween. Geez! Can’t we bring in the seasons at the appropriate times?
It is indeed the most wonderful time of the year. It is a time to celebrate the Joy to the World, in the child that was born to be our Savior, the Messiah. It is a blessed time.
