It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas

Not really.
But we tried.
Icicle lights were hung on the eaves with care as we wore shorts and t-shirts.
Snowmen decorations and Santa sleighs were displayed as a soft breeze blew through opened windows.
No chill in the air; no snow on the ground; no chestnuts roasting on an open fire, no Jack Frost nipping at your nose.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas...in Jamaica.
Yes, Christmas looks different this year, but the Savior we serve remains the same. He is faithful when we are frustrated, full of peace when we feel the pinch, and ever present no matter where we may find ourselves.
So, friends, where ever you might find yourself this year (no matter how it looks outside) may it look a lot like Christmas in your heart as you celebrate the birth of the Savior with the ones you love.
