C is for ...

CHANGE.

Jesus' birth changed everything.  He ushered in a new covenant.  He made the way for us to have a relationship with the Father ... not through a priest, but through a relationship.    And by having a relationship with Christ, we are changed ... new creatures. 

So today, I am celebrating the birth of the Christ-child, wondering what it must have been like for his parents and those expecting a "different" kind of Messiah and being thankful for the life I have because of the life He gave.   Faith Hill has a wonderful song that reminds us that this child, this baby, indeed changes everything.  everything.

My whole life is turned around
I was lost and now I'm found
A baby changes everything
