Review # 2 was written on 2019-12-18 00:00:00 David Brown A beautiful story explaining the origin and tradition of putting Christmas presents into other people's stockings. It all started with Nicholas who served God all his life (later known as Saint Nicholas, or Sinterklaas, or Santa Claus). He anonymously gave three bags of gold to a man whose daughters could not get married because he had no dowry. The last bag of gold reportedly landed in the youngest daughter's stocking. Thus the tradition of putting gifts in stockings began. This story and tradition highlights the spirit of Christmas: giving to those who don't even deserve what we give them, like God gave us his only son Jesus, setting the example of giving, even when none of us deserved to have Jesus die for us. Giving to others shows God's love. |
