I do love Christmas but I’m so glad when it’s all over and I can just sit back and relax for a day or two. It’s rush here and go there and wrap this and ‘Oh no, I forgot that!’
I don’t care what I forgot to buy for who, I will not go out shopping the last week before Christmas. I hate the way they commercialize Christmas. That’s not what it should be. It should be a time to celebrate with family and loved ones. It’s supposed to be a celebration of the birth of Jesus. Not a celebration to the gift god.
It’s amazing how many people don’t realize that Santa Clause represents the Three Wise Men bringing their gifts to the Baby Jesus at night so as not to bring trouble to him. That’s how Santa Clause came about and what he stands for. Christmas is a celebration of children but we need to all make sure that even the youngest child knows what we are celebrating and why.
Sure they are the center of Christmas but the true center of Christmas is Jesus Christ. No I’m not a religious fanatic but I do know that there is something or someone greater than I am.
