Letter to the editor: Choose to believe

“Christmas can be a time of Joy! Hope can grow if you believe it can. The choice is ours to believe and receive the greatest gift ever given to man.

“Christmas can be a time for healing. Love and forgiveness can reign supreme — the choice is ours, our decisions matter. Our prayers are heard by the King of Kings.

“Christmas can be a time of caring, Needs can be met, and lives can be healed. A decision to lead a life of sharing, will ultimately lead to dreams fulfilled.

“Christmas can be a time of patience, choose respect for others over getting your way; compassion and love are gifts to give. Let Christmas continue every day.

“Christmas can be a time for giving, choosing to be humble, sharing your best. Faith can flourish as you give of yourself, choosing to love, in His care we can rest.

“Our hearts and our spirits will soar in delight, As we savor the love Christmas brings at this time. So choose to believe and receive His blessings, God’s love you’ll receive and you’ll soar to new heights.”
