• Focusing on Jesus

My grand daughter Madison is discovering the manger scene at our house. Every time that she visits now, she has to go the table where the creche is located just to pick up the baby Jesus from the manger. We review all the members of the scene and talk to her about the baby Jesus.

Of course, this is the introduction process to our Christmas traditions.

She wants to carry the baby Jesus around the house, but eventually, Jesus gets back in His bed of hay. Having a young child around the house at this time of year has been so fun for Sharon and I. Now she has this routine of places in the house that she visits to see the manger, then the village lights and listen to the Hallmark characters sing, and hear the sounds of Christmas decorations. Madison is helping us keep the focus on Jesus, is that good or what? What helps you keep focused on Jesus and the real meaning of Christmas? Do you have some “triggers” that do that for you?
