So, how important is Christmas to you? Is it Christ or the mas (more)? Well, for me it is definitely Christ. But I can say that it has not always been that way. So here is a little test to see where you stand or actually should stand. Think back on all the Christmases you ever had. List every Christmas present you ever got. How many of those presents do you still have? Or even remember. Now list all the things Christ has done for you. Wow! That’s going to take a while. First on your list and everyone’s list is the gift of Christ himself. God gave His only begotten Son to everyone who will believe. That was over 2000 years ago! Do you remember? Of course you do. Christ was given and still gives freely to everyone. So is it Christ or more. For me it is more Christ. Christmas is all about the one gift. Gods gift. It is not about what you got or what you didn’t get. It’s about Christ. So before you open your presents and carve the turkey remember who offers you eternal life. Remember who gave His life to save you from your sins. Remember who won the victory over death. Remember, the King who left His throne to be born a baby in a manger, to live to die for you! Remember the importance of Christmas!
Merry Christmas, Robert
