Advent devotional for December 3rd


("Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" on A Charlie Brown Christmas, 1965)

It is a day and a season of festivities. The "Day" is the birthday of Jesus, who, when he grew up taught us how to communicate with God by using our faith in him and following his examples. A birthday is a time to be happy about that person.

The "Season" is also a time to be happy about the current times. This involves families getting together for fellowship. If small children are involved in this fellowship, this event really takes on a feeling of great joy.

It reminds us adults of the Christmas times of the past when we were kids and the good thoughts we remember about our youth.
