About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"THE CHILDREN AND CHRISTMAS" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
CHRISTMAS WILL BE HERE IN A FEW DAYS AND IF FOR NO OTHER REASON BUT THE CHILDREN, IF YOU HAVE SMALL ONES, THERE ARE JUST A FEW THINGS WE NEED TO REMEMBER. WE ALL HAVE HEARD THE PHRASE "JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON" AND ALTHOUGH WE KNOW THAT HE IS, WE FORGET SOMETIMES. JUST A FEW THINGS I AM TALKING ABOUT.
IN ALL YOUR BUYING FOR EVERYONE, DID YOU GET JESUS A GIFT. IT IS HIS BIRTHDAY, YOU KNOW. MOST PEOPLE DON'T RELATE TO THAT AND IT IS A SHAME. THEY THINK ABOUT PUTTING LIGHTS ALL OVER THE HOUSE, PUTTING UP A CHRISTMAS TREE AND BUYING GIFTS FOR THE CHILDREN AND EVERYONE ELSE BUT DON'T THINK ABOUT JESUS. HOW IS THIS SHOWING THE CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN THAT JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON.
I HAVE A FEW SUGGESTIONS FOR YOU PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS WITH SMALL CHILDREN. WHAT BETTER WAY TO INTRODUCE THEM TO JESUS THAN STARTING AT HIS BIRTH. INSTEAD OF READING "THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS" TO THEM THIS YEAR, WHY NOT READ LUKE 2, THE STORY OF JESUS' BIRTH. ALSO, WHEN YOU ARE SHOPPING FOR EVERYONE ELSE, WHY NOT MAKE A REAL BIG DEAL OUT OF BUYING A PRESENT FOR JESUS AND PUTTING IT UNDER THE TREE. YOU WONDER WHAT YOU CAN BUY JESUS? HOW ABOUT A PRETTY LITTLE GIFT BOX AND HAVE YOUR CHILD WRITE A NOTE TO JESUS TELLING HIM THAT THEY LOVE HIM AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND PUTTING IT IN THE BOX AND LET THEM WRAP IT. I AM SURE JESUS WOULD LOVE THAT. WHY NOT LET YOUR CHILD HELP YOU BAKE HIM A BIRTHDAY CAKE. EVERYONE ELSE GETS ONE ON THEIR BIRTHDAY SO WHY NOT JESUS. I BELIEVE GETTING THE CHILDREN INVOLVED IN ALL ASPECTS OF CHRISTMAS WILL INTRODUCE THEM TO JESUS IN A GOOD WAY. JUST FOR CURIOSITIES SAKE, ASK YOUR CHILD WHO IS JESUS TO THEM. THEIR ANSWER JUST MIGHT SURPRISE YOU.
I HOPE ALL OF YOU WITH SMALL CHILDREN WILL TAKE ME UP ON MY SUGGESTIONS THIS CHRISTMAS. IF ANY OF YOU WITH SMALL CHILDREN HAVE ANY MORE SUGGESTIONS, PLEASE SHARE. YOU CAN SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE AND THAT WOULD HELP TREMENDOUSLY. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL AND I PRAY THAT YOUR DAY WILL BE BLESSED WITH ALL OF GOD'S BLESSINGS. I LOVE YOU ALL.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
