Kris Kringle says a line in this play that I keep coming back to again and again: “Christmas is the time when miraculous things happen.” That’s my favorite thing about this season: the possibility of extraordinary things happening at any moment. You feel this possibility in the crisp quiet of the first snow, in the smell of the Christmas ham in the oven at Grandmother’s house, and in the twinkling lights in windows throughout town. 

This story is full of extraordinary, miraculous moments—some big, others small. What other story has the real Kris Kringle working at Macy’s during the Holidays? Or has a major department store sending business to their competition? But the biggest miracle in this story is that a group of people step out of their comfort zones and choose to believe in each other. Because these people believe in Kris, and because they have faith in each other, they experience a miracle. They allow for the possibility, and their lives are changed.

This year, when the shopping and pressures of the Holidays take our focus, may we also allow for the possibilities this season brings. After all, this is the time where miraculous things happen
