"Christmas: What It Is All About"

If I did not believe in God, Christmas would surely make a believer out of me.  During this time more than any, people take on the sharing, caring, giving spirit. This in essence is the  heart of God revealed in John 3:16, through Jesus the Christ, "for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

JESUS is the reason for the season and that is what Christmas is all about, GIVING, because  God gave the ultimate gift, His son. It is this spirit of love and giving that seems to be contagious at this season of the year.  Even the scrooge type person seems to be more kinder and gentler.

Christmas is not about how much money you can spend by December 25th on trinkets and gifts that get returned by the 26th by the recipient, because they didn't want that anyway.  Look beyond the commercialism toward the cry of every human heart and see the need that everyone has to be loved and this season, give as much love as you can, even if you don't have a gift to give, the gift of love, caring and sharing will be lasting…
