A few days ago, we received a Christmas card that had the words, "Jesus knows me, this I love..." written on the inside. At first we made light of it, thinking that the individual who sent it just didn't remember the words to the song, but then we realized that what she was saying made perfect sense. Not only does Jesus know me, but He knows me better than I know myself. After all, I haven't the slightest clue how many hairs are on my head, but according to the Bible God even knows that (Matthew 10:30).

"Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you."

                             -I Peter 5:7

This Christmas season, I challenge you to, for just one minute, forget about the Christmas shopping you've got to finish up; forget about the presents yet to wrap and the food left to buy, and reflect on the true meaning of the Holiday. Don't let the lights, the music, and the gifts steal all your attention as they have in years past, but instead give your attention to the One who gave the greatest Christmas gift of all: Himself.
