Go Tell it On The Mountain

It isn't all the decorations and the gifts and the smell of candles nor is it the dinners and visiting and red sweaters. All those are nice ways to celebrate, but it's not about any of that. In fact if that's all it is why bother.

Sometimes we get so wrapped up in the wrappings and the gifts,we don't stop long enough to be wrapped in wonder.

Tonight at the Christmas Eve service the wonder, awe, and celebration was evident in the singing, in listening to the words telling of the birth of a small baby in a manger, in the lighting of the candles and singing "Silent Night".

Go, Tell It On The Mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, Tell It On The Mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
