I believe that the Lord purposely let us celebrate Christmas near the end of the year for two reasons.  The first reason is so that we can reflect on how well we have remembered Christ and tried to follow him in the past year.  The second reason is so that we can determine to do better in the following year.    Having our thoughts centered in Christ during Christmas is reflected in the kinds of goals we set for the new year.  Christ helps us to know were we need improvement and knowing this helps us to know Christs will for us.  Let us all think more of Christ this Christmas season and always.
