It’s that time: holiday cheer, the sound of sleigh bells, and buy buy buy our way into happiness. Yes Thanksgiving is a day to remember the many blessings that have been given to us; our life, family, our jobs, and our eternal salvation hidden in Jesus. We have so much to be thankful for, yet as thanksgiving presents itself, many homes are planning how they can chime in on the holiday sales, beating others to the stores, gaining the best bargains on that new TV, or gathering all the videos they can at that all time low price, and the attitude that fills the malls; well its an attitude that’s everything but an attitude of thankfulness.
Honking horns and cursing can be heard in the shopping mall parking lots, cutting in line, shoving and pushing is found on the inside of the stores across the nation, and the thankfulness found on that day; well I guess it only lasts until the turkey has begun to digest. We find people uptight, and stressed, neglecting to take a moment to remember what the Lord has done in their lives. Listen scripture says in the book of Hebrews 13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said; “never will I leave you never will I forsake you. So we can say with confidence, the Lord is my helper, I can not be afraid what can man do to me?
I encourage you; take your time remembering what the Lord has done for you this year. The year may have presented its trials, you may have had to endure some tribulations, but be encouraged by the fact that God, the God who created you, loves you, and will never leave you abandoned. So when you're out doing your holiday shopping, remember the greates gift that has been given to you, is not only priceless, but it's free; so give it away; the love of Jesus Christ.
Do you remember those days of gathering around the fire, and reading the famous book Twas the night before Christmas? We remember the reindeer, and Santa Clause, the stockings ready for a fill up, and presents that fill the tree with shiny paper ready to be ripped apart. But in the Midst of all of this, have we forgotten the real reason for Christmas? Have we forgotten what God did one night in the manger with one woman, who gave birth to a baby, that one day she herself would call Lord? Listen to this Podcast and hear the story of Why we celebrate Christmas Day...
Twas the night before Christmas
Joseph and Mary on the Run
Knowing King Herod wanted the head of their son,
They came to the inn, there weren’t rooms anymore
Not a bed, not a cot, not room on the floor.
Mary went out to the fields with the cows and the horses
She gave birth to our savior all heaven rejoices.
Joseph arrived and said “what did I miss”
But when he saw baby Jesus he offered a kiss.
A star brightly shines for the world to see
Is God saying I now unite you unto me.
Believe in my son and you’ll never die,
Draw near unto me and to you I’ll draw nigh.
God said anything you ask in Jesus name you’ll receive,
Give love unto others and you’ve done t for me.
Though Santa is jolly and places gifts under your tree
My gifts will not perish if you live unto me.
So remember this Christmas to keep Jesus your sight.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good LIFE!
