It's Christmas!

Christmas is my favorite time of year! I love everything about it-the food, the gifts, family, the music, and the movies(Christmas Vacation of course). It's been said in the past that "Jesus is the reason for the season." And that is true, but my pastor has made a statement several times this season that has brought new light on what the reason for the season really is. He says that "Jesus isn't the reason for the season, we are." Meaning that we are the reason He was born, died, and was resurrected. Makes pretty good sense if you ask me. I have caught myself stressing this year about all the things we have to do and not focusing on the true meaning of Christmas. So, this week I am going to set my eyes on Jesus and my family. The presents are bought and the plans are made. But even if they weren't. Christmas would still be Christmas because I have my family. It's gonna be a great week! Merry Christmas!
