Christmas is a time when we think about wants:
what we want and what those we love want.
We even use it as an excuse to be a little greedy!

But what if we’re not asking for enough?

What if the boy in the comic is almost right?
What if world peace underestimates God’s gift?
What if God offers the perfect world in his perfect presence?

CS Lewis puts it like this:

…if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires, not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.

Carols this year will be a great opportunity to eat, sing, think, thank, socialise and ask for more!
