Merry Christmas

I have been thinking a lot this year about what Christmas should mean to those who follow Jesus Christ. Our society and even many churches have made the holiday about things that really don't matter. Giving and receiving gifts are nice but not what Christmas is about. Parties and spending time with family aren't quite it either. Time off from work or school isn't what it is about. Christmas is about taking time to remember what we should think about every day. The God who created all things, the ruler of all that is seen and all that is unseen loved His creation so much that He sent His son so that we could know God. He loves us more that we could ever know. And God gave us the most incredible gift. The gift of Himself. Let's keep that in mind on Saturday morning and throughout every day of our lives. Merry Christmas!
