Celebrating Christmas Are we celebrating the reason or are we patronizing the season ?     As I sat here in my office, I ask myself are we celebrating Christmas because of the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. Are we using this Holiday Season to purchase gifts, buying lots of toys for the kids, decorateing the house, haveing family and friends over for dinner and parties and a New Years Eve gala and going into debt because this is a tradition thats been passed down through the years? Nothing wrong with this, if this is what you do every year. But I still wonder is this celebration for the reason and that being that the Christ Child was born not necessarly on Christmas Day but nevertheless born. I'm not at all sure if anyone truly knows the exact date of the birth of Christ, but tradition not truth has it that the 25th of December is the date. I suppose people have gotten away from the old ways of celebrating Christmas by going to Church thanking God for his only begotten Son born of the Virgin Mary in whom he was well pleased. Giving God thanks that we've lived to see another year end and we still have a reasonable portion of our health and strenght and are able to continue to do the things we injoy. We'er able to continue to fellowship with one another in love and express our true feelings for one another. I'm speaking of seniors at this point. There seems to be a lot more living now then ever before and I wonder how many are greatful and thank God for their time ? I wonder ! I wonder if you thank God for yours ?
