A Joyful Time
|
With all the hype on Christmas in this world. Many tend to loose track of what it is. Christmas should be something that is year around. Shouldn't we have that joy all year round? Should we keep it for only one day? I think not!! This year the kids reminded me off what Christmas should be. Yes even I lost track of what Christmas should mean. They came to me and ask Mom shouldn't we be giving instead of recieving? I about fell over, cause you know as I, that we teach and teach and something wonder is it really sinking in? I said well of course we are to give.. and in response I got...Why don't we do more of that then?.... Dumbfounded...I didn't know how to answer them. So we are working on ways to bless others. And not just at Christmas...for without Christ being born there is no Christmas right? But if we have Christ in us..aren't we suppose to have Christmas everyday? We are to work toward being more Christ like everyday....then what better way to do that then to be someone elses Christmas. In the sense of giving to others daily..whether it be giving of material items that are needed....needed not wanted...or just being that friend that has the should they can cry on. Even for our children to cry on ..so to speak. Yes i'm guilty of it. I get busy and one of the comes up and says ..Mom can we play a game or can you read this to me...and my answer is...not right now mom is busy. That's not showing a Christ-like attitude. Cause He would never tell us...not right now my child I'm busy!!....Something that I intend to work on this following new year. And to show my children as well as others...that Christmas should be all year long. When have only 1 Day devoted to the ONE that is EVERYTHING!!
