Why we are blessed


Attended Southern Christmas Show with a friend yesterday!It always puts me in the Christmas spirit as if I need a reason. I listen to Christmas music throughout the year and love when the radio stations start playing it full time. But why do I fuss when the store puts out Christmas paraphernalia at Halloween? Maybe it's the commercialism I dislike. The TRUE SPIRIT though is quite different. Just as we should honor Thanksgiving every day of our lives by living in gratitude for all the good things in our life we should also honor the Christ Child every day of our lives as the reason for all the good in our lives.

How truly you speak. All the stores music denotes is retails desire to have you spend money. I like business to be going well, but I hate the commercialism. Thanks for the reminder of the constancy of Gods gift to us.
