GOD'S CHRISTMAS GIFT

During the year's coldest month at Yosemite Park, if conditions of snowmelt and angle of the sun are just right, a dark waterfall over gray rock becomes illuminated like a spill of fiery lava.

"... this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory." Colossians 1:27

O Holy Night, the beautiful Christmas song, portrays the world in sadness "til He appeared, and the soul felt its worth." The birth of Jesus shone the light of Heaven into a dark world to illuminate beautiful value in all who believe. God's Christmas gift is the thrill of hope.
