For the last several hours, I have been slouching in my easy chair basking in the soothing aura of the season. I have not moved in several hours, and it probably will be several more hours before I even think of moving.

year. 

Yes, being broke is a good feeling. 

Being broke also means I have no room for regrets. Would I have liked to
give more gifts? Sure, but when you run out of money, you cannot go any 
further. By being broke at the end of Christmas means, I have done 
everything I possibly could within my resources to thank the people I 
love for being a part of my life. 

You cannot buy friendship. Unless of course you are in Washington DC or
Hollywood California. Among normal folk, friendship is not for sale. It 
is not even for rent. At this time of the year, it sure is a wonderful 
feeling to tell your friends and family you are glad they are a part of 
your life. 

Being broke is a lot more than having no money. Being broke means that I
have done everything within my power to bless those people around me. I 
have given all I had to give and there is a good warm fuzzy feeling 
about that. 

God is the one who set the standard along this line. “For the wages of
sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ 
our Lord” (Romans 6:23 KJV). 

God looked at the world, it broke His heart and therefore He sent His
Son to remedy our situation. Thank God for that broken heart. He gave 
His all for those He loved.
