For much of the world, the last half of December encompasses the beginning of winter and the a season of gift-giving, marked by Hanukkah and Christmas. It is generally accepted that the tradition of giving of gifts at this time was begun by The Three Wisemen.

As described in The Gospel According to Matthew, the wisemen, led by a star from a distant land to the east, found the baby Jesus. First, they worshipped him and then, "they presented him with gifts: gold, frankincense and myrrh." (Matthew 2:11).

Thus began the tradition of celebrating the birth of Christ with the giving of gifts. There is a parallel tradition in the Jewish faith of the giving of gelt or gold at Hanakkuh to help support poor students, in keeping with the rich history of scholarship that is fundamental to the rabbinic system.

Inevitably, in our secular culture, there has been a blending and a secularization of these traditions. The reasons have gotton lost in the gimme.

What is often overlooked is what Paul realized when he told Timothy, Neglect not the gift that is in thee. The most importent gift is the gift inside of us, the gift of sacrificial love for others.

When we let that gift be diminished in our minds amid the clutter of modern day material seeking, we can recall the prophesy of Micah over 2800 years ago, But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel: whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting." (Micah 5:2 KJV) Never underestimate the impact you have on others.

Words of kindness can change peoples lives. The Talmud says that the highest form of wisdom is kindness. Be wise this holiday season.

The font BETHLEHEM STAR was originally designed for the church to which I belong, The Star Bethlehem Church of Ansonia, Connecticut, USA and is based on the typeface Accent with the permission of URW++ of Hamburg, Germany.

You might choose BETHLEHEM STAR for your personal greetings as well as for flyers and programs at your church this holiday season.

Like most display fonts, it is most effective at 18 points and larger.

Like most script fonts, it is most effective when set with both upper and lower case. All caps with this font is like eating two pieces of pecan pie too much of a good thing.
