Christmas already?!

Time flies whether you're having fun or not, and well, its time to shout,

"FOR THE 2009th TIME, ITS CHRISTMAS ALREADY!!!" (:

YES! It has been a little over two millenniums since our Savior was born and was crucified for our eternal salvation. CAN I HEAR AN AMEN AND A SHOUT FOR JOY?! We're all secured to Heaven!

Hmm, if you have no boxers about what I'm talking about (yes, I make my own phrases) then please consult the blank box at the click of a comment! (:

I'm sure I'll reply.

Well! All the tension and excitement of buying and wrapping gifts, getting trees and lights done up, rehearsing carols and learning recipes, and Christmas is...here? At the time I'm posting this, and probably when YOU read this, it would already have been over and done with.

Gone is the turkey

Gone is the snow

Gone are the presents

and gone is their glow

Gone with a day

Gone, all the say

When everything's gone away

Then we can start to pray

Christmas has lost its meaning so deep into people's pockets that even I doubt I know what Christmas is. If you've read Luke 2, you should know that Christmas is a day when we celebrate the greatest show of love on earth. The eternal Father, all mighty, all powerful, omnipotent, omnipresent, He didn't have to give a mosquito's thought for us, yet He wrenched His whole heart out for us. For YOU. Yes, reader, you are now liable to feel guilty and go and pray now. :) He's listening. All the time.

Continue in doing your good work, guys, never be discouraged or give up, thinking that 'sin is bound to happen', because sin stops when YOU want it to stop! It all starts from you. Whether you want God to control your life, whether you want to get out of your comfort zone, whether you want to...or not. God does not use force. He uses love. "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, You will not despise." - Psalms 51:17

Have you given your heart back to your Lover? Lets not wait till valentines to decide to give a one-day gift to a person we love; Lets make this day an eternal commitment to the unchanging Lover of our souls.

Now, where was that Christmas cracker?
