There seems to be an ever widening gap between style and substance. In recent weeks, we have had a never ending media diet of how despicable Donald Trump is supposed to be. Trump is a bit weird, that is fairly obvious, but to listen to his detractors one would think Trump can single-handedly ride the States into the ditch. He can鈥檛, as he has to get approval from Congress and the Senate for legislation.

I didn鈥檛 think so at the time; but looking back, Christmas 2005 was probably the best Christmas of my life. It didn鈥檛 start out that way. One week earlier, Kathryn suffered the stroke that nearly took her life. All family Christmas celebrations were put on indefinite hold as we maintained a vigil at Winnipeg鈥檚 Health Science Centre. We sat, we watched, we talked and prayed together. We had only one request鈥攚e wanted Kathryn to live.

There is one candle burning. I watch the flame. When there is a stirring of air the flame is stirred up as well. When it is quiet, the flame spreads a peaceful feature. I can watch it for quite a while. The thought occurred to me how the wise men watched and followed that star in the sky. It must have given them peace, knowing that they would find Jesus if they kept looking up.
