HappyChristmasAndAMerryNewYear

It feels like Christmas was just last year..... Ahhhh, what a time it was back then. But I am sure this Christmas will be just as great. After all, this is the last Christmas that we will spend on this rock. It is still hard to believe, but I believe it. Things change. After 15 years of the same things I figure a change this drastic will probably be good for my health. Mentally and physically.

So how is everyone's Christmas turning out? I know we still have a couple of days to go, but you can kind of tell if you are going to have a great Christmas or not by now. Sick? Tired? Someone die? (Okay that was kind of tactless) All these questions must be answered before you can have a Happy Christmas! Presents are great and all, but if there is just one family member missing can you really call it a Happy Christmas? There is nothing like a day where the family can sit and talk about life. I always see family slowly come apart when parents pass away or when siblings move away and start a family. Well, not for me! No matter what changes I pray that we will still come together and celebrate Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years together every year. 

A family that sticks together their whole lives is the best. 

Of course! Jesus is still the reason for the season. Let's not forget what He has done and IS doing. He came for one reason. It's really comforting to know that even if you lose EVERYTHING there will always be Him. Lose your family? Job? Rational reasoning? Doesn't matter. You still have Him. And that's awesome. 

Whether you are spending Christmas with your loved ones or by yourself. Have a Happy Festive Christmas. Thank Jesus for your life, for all the good and bad things. Forgive your close ones, mend the hurts, give generously with a cheerful heart, and eat a lot of good food!

Oh! And share the greatest Story ever told and will be told. The one about a Man that gave up perfection for un-perfect things like us.
