Hot chocolate by a warm fire…Christmas music by candlelight…gifts tied in gold ribbon..and friends and family gathered in my home, filling it with laughter and love. These are just a few of my favorite things. But nothing beats the feeling of joy that we get from giving, or the knowledge that perhaps we’ve made a difference in our world. If one child in Cambodia can know that Jesus came to earth, or one family in the Congo receive the hope that comes with a better future, then we have lived out what this Giving Season is all about.
