There's a story of a woman who was Christmas shopping with her two children. After many hours of looking at row after row of toys and hearing both her children asking for everything they saw on those many shelves and other things in the store, she finally made it to the elevator with her kids.
She was feeling what so many of us feel during the holiday season time of the year.....overwhelming pressure to go to every party, every house warming, taste all the holiday food and treats, getting that perfect gift for every single person on our shopping list, making sure we don't forget anyone on our card list, and the pressure of making sure we respond to everyone who sent us a card. Finally the elevator doors opened and there was already a crowd in the elevator. She pushed her way into the elevator and dragged her two kids in with her and all her purchases. When the doors closed she couldn't take it anymore and stated "Whoever started this whole Christmas thing should be found, strung up and shot." From the back of the elevator everyone heard a quiet, calm voice respond, "Don't worry, we already crucified him." For the rest of the trip it was so quiet you could have heard a pin drop. Don't forget this year to keep the One who started this whole Christmas thing in your every thought, word, deed and purchases. Keep Christ in Christmas! If we all do, just think of how different this whole world would be. Merry Christmas! |
