This Week Letter – December 23, 2018
Christmas Invitation
There is a story about Mary who had a dream about a birthday celebration for her Son, Jesus. The people in her dream had been preparing for weeks, decorating their houses, buying new clothes and many presents but unfortunately they were not for her Son. They never mentioned His name and she had the feeling that if her Son, Jesus, had gone to this celebration He would have been intruding. Mary was glad that it was only a dream. How terrible, if it had been real.
