the true meaning of Christmas


He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a tree. ~Roy L. Smith


In the world that we live in today, we don't focus on what Christmas is really about. It's not about presents, lights, or Santa. That's what we have made it, but that isn't what it means. Christmas is a time for family and friends, love and laughter, and most of all Jesus. We celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ on Christmas day. And that is what it is truly all about.


Luke 2:11-14 11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. 12 And this shall be a sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. 13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, 14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.


^ This is what Christmas is really about.

Not the presents wrapped perfectly underneath the Christmas tree.


Jesus is the reason for the season.


Merry Christmas everyone! May God bless you abundantly this holiday season.
