Christmas

Wow! So I went outside, attempting to go on a run. Only to turn around in 5 minutes...it was so windy and cold I turned back! Anyway, I went to a church Christmas play today. I love Christmas....the music,decorations, shopping, baking, and of course the family celebrations. However, I always forget what Christmas is truly about. I was reminded today that Christmas is about a precious baby layed in a lowly manger. A savior, who humbly came to Earth for you and me. He lived amongst his people, and took on the burden of sin for you and me. Christmas was never meant to become an elaborate scheme of advertisements, greed, and selfishness; it is a time where one should truly remember how amazing their father in heaven is. I ask that no one forget this, be thankful for everything that you have. Do not neglect the relationships that you have with people you love, and with Christ. Merry Christmas everyone!
