Another Christmas Season, I asked Bobby the other day, "Where has this year gone ?"
Seems like only a short time since we were celebrating this very special time of the year.
Need I remind you, WHY we set aside December 25th each year ? Some might say, the parties, others the gifts, children would most like;y squeal with delight, thinking of Santa and the long list of their, "Wants". Today more than ever before many are trying to take Christ out of the Season. We no longer see Merry Christmas in store ads, even in our little town of Buffalo I received an ad that said, "Happy Holidays". I find this so sad that those who profit so much financially from this time of year want to remove the very reason we have the season.
Christmas trees and decorations must be removed because they offend a few people,
SO WHAT ? I am offended when they are removed ! You ask what is the answer, I believe we as Christians must stand up, speak out, let the people who are taking Christ out of Christmas
know we will no longer buy from the stores that do not celebrate the REAL Christmas. This is America, we have celebrated the birth of Jesus Christ for over 200 years. Why must we give in to a few who want to change "Merry Christmas" to "Happy Holidays". I am not offended by others who have a different belief, I do not ask them to change their way of celebrating, why must they try to destroy what Christmas has been to the Christian community for many, many, many, years. So, as for me and my house we are saying ,"MERRY CHRISTMAS" in response to those who say ever so lightly, Happy Holidays. Christmas for me will ALWAYS be celebrating the birth of MY Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Thanking God the Father for the greatest Gift ever given to mankind, a way to have our sins forgiven and be assured of eternal life with Him, God The Father, Jesus The Son, and The Holy Spirit. I pray you will not be one to remove Christ from Christmas, by X ing Him out or saying Happy Holidays.
From The Threet Home To Yours, Merry Christmas !!
Until next time, "Keep Yours Eyes On Jesus" !!
