December
is not my favorite month because this is the month that we overspend because we have to buy gifts, decorations, clothes, and food for Christmas and New Year’s
Eve. December is also the busiest month for my husband because of three Christmas
Parties that he has to attend and work that he needs to finish. Call me scrooge
but I don’t like how people celebrate and tend to forget the real reason for
this season.
I must agree that Christmas is not one giant party. Sharing
this message from Francis Kong site.
For to us, a child is born, to us, a son is given, and the
government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Notice this, like a child He was born of a virgin, as a son
He was given.
The manger gave way to the cross many years later when He
gave His life for us so that we may be saved.
And this is why the real meaning of Christmas is that the
Savior has come but the real meaning of Christianity is not the manger but the
empty tomb.
No, it’s not about
the gifts and the parties, it’s not about cash flow, it’s not about stocks
inventory and it’s not about our failing economy.
It’s all about putting accepting the Prince of Peace and
allowing Him to reign in our hearts so that we may spend the rest of eternity
with Him.
Then and only then do we enjoy Christmas.
