Christmas Focus
We talk every year about how the Christmas season is busy, stressful and chaotic. We talk every year about how we are going to make sure that we don't lose the focus of what this season is all about. Oftentimes we talk in January about how we were too stressed, ate too much, spent too much and did too much during the month of December.
Well how about this year being the year that we do the things that we talk about? What if we intentionally take the time to adjust our Christmas focus? What if we really thought about the incredible story of Christ leaving the comforts of heaven to come to earth as a little baby to be one of us? That is the greatest news the world had ever heard. He became one of us. He is Immanuel, God with us.
When I am reminded of that the other stuff of Christmas gets straightened out and my focus is pulled from blurry and stressed out to sharp and clear. Jesus Christ is our gift. He is our help. He is the reason we celebrate. Let's put our focus on Him.
Merry Christmas!
