Christmas means different things to everybody. For some people it's the sales and buying gifts. For others it's about Jesus Christ.
Now both of those things are great (I love getting and giving gifts I mean who wouldn't). However, our society is getting so caught up in sales and deals, but we forget that it's much MORE than that.
The first six words of "Christmas" are very important.......CHRIST!!! Because of Him we have this holiday. He was born in a manger and then died on a cross for US!!!! Every time Christmas comes around I learn something new.
I know several families who won't have loved ones with them this Christmas, but when I talk to them.....they say are glad their loved one is with Christ!!
As you are surrounded by your families this Christmas, just remember the reason for the season. The reason is Jesus Christ, our Lord & Savior, Immanuel, Wonderful Counselor, Alpha & Omega...etc.
Doesn't matter where you are on Christmas, as long as you are surrounded by the ones you love. With or without presents Christmas would still be the same! What makes Christmas actually Christmas is a little baby boy born in a manger.
