As my wife,Ellen and I sat and watched tv last night I was again amazed at all the fine "new" stuff for Christmas this year. I say new because who would have ever thought of giving sweaters,coffee makers,jewlery,games,toys-well I think you know where I am heading. We give the same ole thing year after year, things we don't need, stuff we all can do with out! Yet we do it anyway in the "spirit of the season".
Christmas is a Christian holiday, one in which we should reflect on the birth of our Savior,Jesus! We have become so PC as to let it be known as "winter festival"; you can't be serious. This is a Christian holiday, maybe if we that call ourselves by HIS name treated it like a Christian holiday (by the way the word holiday comes fron the words holy day) the "world" might take note and not even try this notion of winter festival.
I'll tell one thing, if the PC crowd can't do Christmas, let them have their own holiday. They are more than welcome to work on the 25th of December! Yes they do have their own holiday; April 1, (April Fools Day) "the fool has said in his heart there is no God" Psalms 14:1 Psalms 53:1 KJV.
Let's all try a new approach this year and celebrate CHRIST! I'm not saying to not buy presents(not to worry Ellen,Chey) lets just remember the "reason for the season". We hear that every year but still get caught in the commercial side of it. I'm the worlds worst!
It's great to be back from vacation (ya right)!
I love you all and the Lord loves you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In Him, Brian F.
