Well it is almost here!
There are just to many people this time of year who let this joyous time pass by them and they never take the opportunity to celebrate the glory of God. I hear people say "well I will be glad when its over". Come on man! I can understand people wanting a tough day of work to hurry and go by, but not Christmas! I can honestly say I enjoy this time of year more than I ever have. I love it! I not only enjoy it more because I have children, but it is because my love for Jesus Christ!
Think about this. When people sing Christmas songs Christ is honored and people don't even realize. Don't get me wrong "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" isn't exactly honoring God, but there are tons of musicians who record Christmas music and are singing of the glorious Savior.
My point is simple. He will be praised! Jesus Christ has suffered humility. The Bible says "he humbled himself even unto death." However the days of humility is over, and his arrival is the beginning of the Kingdom. Jesus will be honored. It doesn't matter how much a person denies the deity of the Lord, one day they will bow before him. There is coming a day when the trees will clap at the presence of the King. Until then there will always be some who praise him.
I love the Christmas story because I love my savior. I can not show my love for him by my righteousness because there is no good within me, but I can tell his story. I can sing his praises, and I can share his Gospel!
I hope you take the time this Christmas to love like Jesus. We only get so many Christmas days on this earth with the people we love. So tell those around you how you love them, and share the story of Jesus with somebody!
Jesus Saves,
RR
