Day 11 - Christmas
Christmas is just days away!! Can you remember what we were doing for Christmas last year? All the caroling, eating etc. And after that, we had to prepare the maze for TOFU?? Hard to beleive that was a year ago.
Christmas is really more than just about presents, or about the birth of Jesus. Sometimes we focus so much on the birth that we forget about what happends after that.
Christmas Isn't Christmas
Christmas, isn't Christmas
Till it happends in your heart
Somewhere, deep inside you
Is where Christmas really starts
So give your heart to Jesus
You'll discover when you do
That is Christmas, really Christmas
For You
Jesus brings warmth like a winter's fire
A light like a candle's glow
He waiting now to come inside
Like He did so long ago
Jesus brings gifts of truth and life
And makes them bloom and grow
So welcome Him with a song of joy
And when He comes you'll know
Christmas would have no meaning, no purpose unless we remember Good Friday as well. Jesus was born a helpless babe, and He came not to reign in glory but to die for our sins. And, There would be no reason for Good Friday unless Christmas came first.
These 2 holiday seasons are linked. Let's not forget that even as we celebrate the brith of our Saviour!
