We celebrate several holidays in this country and there are some locations are special places to celebrate. On Memorial Day many Americans bring their boat out for the first time and head to the lake. Independence Day finds us gathered around the BBQ and going to a local fireworks display. Many people are traveling during Christmas, but for most the destination is the same...HOME! There is no place more comfortable and special in our hearts than to gather with our family in that place that we consider home and celebrate the birth of our Savior. It is said that home is where the heart is and there is much truth to that phrase. The Bible tells us, "For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Romans 10:10) Christ tells us, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door. I will come in to him and dine with him and he with Me." God desires to make His home in the hearts of men and a truly happy heart is one in which the Savior lives. Have a blessed Christmas.
What a voice he had. What a great song. He's right about there being no place like home. I feel the same way.
