God's Christmas List
"Believe it or not, all three of these Christmas ideas came directly from God. God made up the first Christmas list, gave us the first Christmas tree and God not only gave the first, He gave the greatest Christmas gift. Over the next three weeks, we are going to be talking about those very things.
"The reason that we have Christmas and the reason there is a Christmas is because God had a Christmas list before the world began. God had a Christmas tree in mind, before you and I were born and God gave a Christmas gift before anyone ever knew what Christmas was. Every Christmas is built around those three things.
"One of the things that change as you get older is your Christmas List. When I was a kid, my Christmas list was very short. There was only one name on it - mine! I was the only name on my list, because the one person I wanted to make sure not to be let out of Christmas was me.
"Then, my list began to change. One of the first things that changed was that my name came completely off the list. The next thing that changed was my list began to grow. Now the first thing I do to get ready for Christmas is I make out my list. I put down all the people that I want to buy things for.
"There is a verse in the Bible that tells us about God's Christmas List and who is on it. In fact, it is without a doubt the most famous verse in the Bible.
