                          It's The Christmas Season

Who needs to be told that? We have been here again and again. For me, I can recall a Christmas 75 years ago when my Grandpa Noah gave me small wooden blocks as a namesake Christmas gift. No matter if I was only 2 years and 7 months old.

But what is new this Christmas? It is the old story still alive- that God did something extraordinary to make his real love known to mankind. A big deal in a small package. An everyday event for someone, yet one of a kind- His Son.

From this small wonder as a person who changed the world forever. Who made possible a different life for the billions of mankind. Who showed a new way of life for everyone; and made that life possible.

Who now has millions of followers proclaiming that LIFE. In world that is partly hiding in darkness, a darkness of ignorance, deception, and weird celebrations, totally unrelated to THAT EVENT.

We who know what Christmas is all about can choose how we celebrate in this season, and throughout the year. Every day is Christmas to us, Jesus coming into the world to save the world through us who know.

Are we angels (messengers) who sing, explain, and worship, or are we shepherds who come and see and return to our world, never to be heard from again? Or wise men who worship and return and no doubt are changed forever, declaring the wonder they saw?


Yes, its the Christmas season. And what that means is up to each of us. Caught busy ness, it is still up to us what it means to us.
