Today we celebrate Jesus' birthday - the only birthday that truly matters. I've had the fortune of having my birthday overshadowed by Jesus' for my entire life, being born very close to Christmas. To make things worse, my younger brother's birthday is one day before mine. So I've always had a humbled view on my own birthday's importance.

This has given me the correct perspective since the beginning. Jesus' is the most important birthday of the season. Without His birthday, none of ours really matter.
