Christmas Cheer

Being Christmas, I was almost tempted to not comment on Christmas AT ALL, since everyone else does, and also for the fact that I didn't want to sound too cliche`.

BUT...you know I'm going to anyways... haha!

I saw a sign a few weeks back... advertising for a supermarket of some sort. The caption said "Celebrate the true meaning of Christmas". As I looked at the rest of the poster though, I was rather disappointed as to what the advertisers thought the "true" meaning of Christmas was, and how they actually wanted to convey that!

All it was, really, was a picture of a family sitting around the table, all smiling ofcourse, one gentleman carving up a turkey (or possibly a really big chicken).

As nice, and inviting as that whole setting is.... could this really be what Christmas has come to?

Christmas. Christ. It is about JESUS CHRIST!
The birth of our Lord, our Saviour, our King!

Just one more little quote to leave with you that I heard from a performer of the 2008 Myer Music Bowl Christmas Carols; "Jesus came to bring LIFE, not Religion"

Blessings!! x
