Christmas has always been a happy time of the year where we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. This year there is a shadow hanging over our celebration, but if we remember who we are celebrating and the great love He has for us (Christians) we can celebrate just as much as we always have. That means all the presents we give and receive and all the good food we enjoy should continue as usual. I remember when I was a boy we were very poor but my dad went out to the shop and made me a stick horse with a real horse’s head and two little wheels on the other end. When Christmas morning came I ran to the living room first. There was my beautiful horse. I took him out for a trial run and he was as fast as the wind. I was four years old at the time and I will never forget that time in my life.
We must leave the name Christ in the word Christmas because Jesus Christ is the reason we can celebrate Christmas. Jesus Christ is the greatest gift this world has ever witnessed since the world began. When GOD the Son became a man “Jesus,” He is still the “Christ” of Heaven. That means He holds the world in one hand and Heaven in the other. He is right when He said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life”. He is the “only” way to Heaven.
BOTTOM LINE: Let’s just praise GOD for His eternal gift to mankind. A greater love than that does “not” exist.....AMEN
