She received notice that her credit card limit was reduced as Christmas drew near. She called her bank screaming how they had just ruined her holiday season. She was deeply in credit card debt and now she wanted to place herself under an even deeper burden fooled into believing that Christmas was all about things. Quietly, when he was given a chance to respond, the credit manager reassured her he was going to give her the best Christmas present that he had available at his discretion. He was not going to restore her former credit line, because it would ruin her life and make her Christmas worse. In gentle and reassuring tones, he told her that Christmas is not about what we can buy, but about family. More importantly, it's about a Savior and we can celebrate him for free. What about us? What kind of Christmas are we planning?
