It has been an extremely busy seven days. The temperature has been well above normal. The mutual feeling of several that I have talked to is that it just does not "feel" like Christmas. That is statement is okay, if Christmas is only about feelings, the weather or my schedule. If Christmas was all about our surroundings, decorations, parties, or anything else, then it would be about our feelings.
Christmas has a deeper meaning. I know we all know that, but how many of us remember that. I think we sometimes get caught up in the lights and hustle and bustle of this time of year and we do not honor what it is really all about.
I want you to go and read Luke 2 this week. I want you to sit in a quiet place and reflect on why we do what we do at this time of year. This week, do not get caught up in the presents and commercialism of this season and truly celebrate Christmas. The meaning of it has nothing to do with our feelings.
