It feels like Christmas



Last night we were watching “A Muppet Christmas Carol” and it really touched me and reminded me of some important things. 

It is true that the greatest gift that Gd gave us is s*lv*tion, but if you truly think about it He was driven by love to give us s*lv*tion, that gift would have been impossible without love. 


Love is the universal language, everybody needs love, everybody wants love and love is really the feeling that we cherish about Christmas. 

I was thinking about all the times it has felt like Christmas here and those have been times of love. When we were with our friends up North, at our teammates home for dinner, with our fellowship on Sunday. 

Sunday when we were at our meeting, one of the girls said “It just doesn’t feel like Christmas.” But I was thinking, “What is she talking about? Right now it feels more like Christmas than ever.” And I realized that it is because I love that group of people. 

In the song “It Feels Like Christmas” from “A Muppet Christmas Carol” it says “It’s true wherever you find love, it feels like Christmas.”

It is true and that is why I am thankful that I have found love here already in so many of the people that I know. 

Here are the lyrics to the song for your enjoyment:

It's in the singing of a street corner choir
It's going home and getting warm by the fire
It's true wherever you find love
It feels like Christmas
A cup of kindness that we share with another
A sweet reunion with a friend or a brother
In all the places you find love
It feels like Christmas
It is the season of the heart
A special time of caring
The ways of love made clear
It is the season of the sprit
The message if we hear it
Is make it last all year
It's in the giving of a gift to another
A pair of mittens that were made by your mother
It's all the ways that we show love
That feel like Christmas
A part of childhood we'll always remember
It is the summer of the soul in December
Yes, when you do your best for love
It feels like Christmas
