The gold, frankincense, and myrrh all come together—there’s no picking and choosing among them. Some things are easy to believe: Children love presents and Christmas trees, fresh snow is beautiful, and it is wonderful to sing carols and to be with
our families. It is better to be warm inside than out in the cold, but the promise of a kindly fire imparts a certain charm to the winter weather. It is better to be fed than to be hungry, even if the turkey doesn’t turn out well.
It is better to have a home full of misbehaving children (My Ed. Note Earth) than a silent house. Those things are easy to believe. Some things are hard to believe. (And harder to know.) “All that stuff must be very comforting. I wish I could believe
it.” I wonder if that’s really true.
