Christmas was meant for more...

Christmas isn't what it should be anymore. People try to buy the biggest most expensive gifts blah blah blah... thats what everyone says these day's, how Christmas is ruined by the gifts we buy each other. what they usually leave out is what people aren't doing anymore. people aren't trying to show goodwill toward men, people aren't spending time together thanking God for what a blessing it is that they be together on this day, most importantly people are not remembering that this 'holiday' is actually a day to remember the sacrifice that was made for the Christian faith. we could use a little more of that these days. Jesus Christ came, died, and rose from the dead and instead of taking a day to remember his death we spend a month planning the most wonderful party of the year to spend with the people we hold dear. "For Christ the lord our savior was born upon this day, to save us all from Satan's power when we were gone astray"  It seems as though we've gone astray today in thinking that we can change one of the most important days of the year into our personal collection plates. Show some respect this holiday, spread the love of Christ to your family and to those around you in need of a very happy 'Christ'mas.
