JUST A THOUGHT FROM THE PERSON IN THE NEXT
PEW |
 Christmas
has rolled around so soon. Each year it seems to come faster.
We all know what a special time this is in the Christian year.
We welcome the Christ child, we sing carols, we greet our friends
with "Merry Christmas" and we visit families . All
this we do almost every year and we have a wonderful time feeling
the spirit of Christmas. But what of January and the months
to follow. So often you hear "winter is sooo long",
"this is a boring time of the year", everyone has
gone away for the winter and the church is empty". Well
the church isn't empty, for God is still there and his wonderful
blessings are still with us. So let us celebrate the wonderful
country around us, let us greet friends with "God be with
you", let us sing the old and familiar hymns and learn
some new ones too, think of our friends who are gone for the
winter, and then go out and make some new friends. God gives
us wonderful opportunities to broaden our spirits wherever we
are and whatever the time of the year. Thank you God for being
with us always and sending your Son to teach us how to live
in your way. Merry Christmas to You and Yours! |
