Unless Jesus Is In Christmas...

Why all the hustle and bustle and dashing through the snow? Why bother writing greeting cards or kiss under a mistletoe? Why chop down a pine tree and dress it with tinsel and lights? What is the purpose of gift giving, or days that are merry and bright? Unless we keep Jesus in Christmas, it isn't Christmas at all. Unless we celebrate The Virgin Birth, nothing has meaning or worth! Christmas isn't the Holly and Ivy, little toy trains or Santa Kissing Mommy. Christmas isn't packages tied with string, a red nosed reindeer, or listening to sleigh bells ring. Christmas isn't baking pies, turkey, and ham, or lying awake till midnight, to see a jolly ol' man. Unless we keep Jesus in Christmas, it isn't Christmas at all. Unless we celebrate The Virgin Birth, nothing has meaning or worth? No nothing has meaning worth! Milton L. Delgado December 26, 2006
