I love Christmas time. I love the cold weather and the cold nights sitting by the fire. I don't love Christmas just because I give and receive presents or because I get to eat yummy food. I love Christmas because this is the time of year that Christ is truly celebrated. Not that we shouldn't celebrate Christ all of the time but people seem to actually recognize that CHRISTmas is supposed to symbolize Jesus. People who don't go to church very often or people who don't come to church at all come to a Christmas Eve service because, half of the time, they feel like they have to but I think that it is better to come to church on Christmas Eve than to not go to church at all your whole life. When those people come to the Christmas Eve service they hear the gospel. What better way is there to present the gospel through the CHRISTmas story. The Christmas story (if told correctly) is so pure, simple and sweet. I just thank our Lord and Savior for giving us this time of year to TRULY celebrate, worship, recognize, and understand His TRUE and MIGHTY love for us.
I hope everyone has a Merry CHRISTmas and that everyone will celebrate Christ in everything they do this holiday season.
