With the busyness of the Christmas season, it\u2019s easy to lose sight of why we celebrate in the first place. We forget that at the time of the first Christmas, God\u2019s people were anticipating a Rescuer who would come and save the world. That\u2019s what makes a countdown like an advent calendar so powerful. It allows us daily moments to stop and reflect on God, who loved us so much and sent Jesus to be our Savior. That\u2019s why this December, we\u2019re \u201cdecking the halls\u201d and taking the whole the month to focus on nothing but Christmas. We\u2019re celebrating Jesus, God\u2019s greatest gift!
