Isaiah 9:6-7
One of the things that makes Christmas so distinct is the tradition of gift-giving. There are many holidays throughout the year that we celebrate, but Christmas is the only one during which we give gifts. And we don't tell each other what we're getting for each other. We wrap it. Put it under the tree. Wait till Christmas morning. Give our family and friends something special. And that is what the Christmas story is. The Savior didn't just come. He was given.
