Our holiday of choice.... Merry Christmas

I'm the first to admit that I enjoy Christmas. Of all the holidays, I enjoy Christmas the most.

If I analysis my choice, I believe it is rather obvious why I like Christmas the most and it doesn't have anything with really celebrating the "birthday" of Christ. If you've study the birth of Christ to most any depth, you know that Jesus wasn't born on December 25th or anywhere close to it.

I believe my issue is much similar. I get presents on Christmas. There's more "stuff" for Christmas than any other time throughout the year. We enjoy Christmas for what "WE" get out of it. Which is rather sad to think of......

Think about it for a moment. At every turn we make everything about ourselves and what we get out of it..... Such pride and ego centric devotion to "our cause"...... can't possibly be pleasing to God at any meaningful level.

Anyways,

Merry Christmas!

May Christ me your pleasure and glory in all things.

I hate Christmas with a passion. It's a triple-decker hatred -- Christmas, birthday, New Years, all in one week. I swear, if I didn't have Jesus, I'd off myself during the holiday season.
