The Provision

Luke 2:14                                The Provision

Introduction

If there is anything that amplifies the difference between the very young and the growing older generations, it is found in the contrasting perspective about the coming of Christmas. Every year, we older persons will say the same thing in November: “What! November already? Christmas is coming again!” The one common reaction we can count on is how “surprised” we are that Christmas comes so fast. We are not ready. There is too much to do. How will we get through it all?
