Santa gives out of obligation, he gives because you've been good.
We give either out of obligation (everybody in the family gets a present) or becasue it makes us feel good or because we love people.
God gives because he is generous, becasue he loves us and because we need it.
God has given the greatest gift of all and yet, we seem to ignore him at Christmas and celebrate the fat man who is allknowing and only gives to those who have been good. We celebrate teh baby who will be our saviour, but we ignore the giver, the generous Father who gave his SOn, who gave not because we were good, but becasue we are bad and we need a saviour.
SO Happy Christmas, may we all thank God for his great gift to us.
