O Come Let Us Adore Him

We are just a day and a half away from Christmas. I don't know if you'll be able to join me at the church for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day worship, so just in case I don't see you I want to wish you a Merry Christmas! I know some take offense at the recent movement in society to neuter the story of Jesus' birth from the holiday extravaganza Christmas has morphed into. Personally I don't take offense. Obviously for many Christmas is simply another holiday marked by family gatherings and gift giving. In truth, no one can take from me the meaning of Christ's birth. And I suspect God is less concerned about culture's hijacking of Christmas then about the Christian who doesn't honor the true meaning of Jesus's birth in her or his own heart. So my prayer for you is that your heart will remain ever faithful to Christ. Then you will have Christmas in you, all year round! Joy and peace, Don
