I heard a story around 4 to 3 years ago from a priest. I still remember it clearly to this day because
it really touched my heart and it was mainly because it made me realize why we actually celebrate Christmas and how it may lead to sin.
He was going Christmas shopping and he went inside a store full of Santa Clause stuff. He asked the sales lady if they had a nativity set. The sales lady said no and offered him some more Santa Clause stuff which were said to be their best seller. I guess they just stopped delivering those since no one really buys them anymore.
This story made a lot of people realize that Santa Clause is now turning into our main reason for Christmas. How many Christmas shows do you guys know that actually show poeple celebrating Jesus' birthday and offer the holiday to Him? Now how many shows do you guys know that just show "happy" people who recive a ton of gifts from a big fat dude who goes down chimmneys, how little kids go around wondering how he delivers gifts to all good children around the world in just one night? See my point? Now I look around my own house and see nothing more but meaningless mini Santa statuesand star decorations. I've been a victim too...
Now that Chrismas is near, can we please celebrate it with a good reason? Can we please celebrate it for Christ? After all, He did save us all from death and took away all our sins. He knows all of our faults, all of our sins, and all of ou mistakes, but still loves us more than anyone else can. He's the best person to talk to when you have a problem. Talk to Him, and build a relationship with Him. You'll always "feel" His answer because He will never forsake you nor leave you. Give Him a try, I'm sure You won't be disappointed. ;D
