This Christmas
You Have a Decision to Make
Dear Friends,
Every Christmas we have to make thousands of decisions about God, family, church, and host of less important matters. I have a suggestion that will help in all these matters.
I suggest the first, over-riding decision be this: We Will Keep Christmas Holy.
If we do that, we probably won’t spend money that we can’t afford to spend. We probably won’t become so BUSY that we miss the SPIRIT of Christmas. We’ll spend more time on Family and less on shopping, more time in Worship and less on partying.
Our families, our children and grandchildren, will be given memories they will never forget of worshipping with loved ones at Christmas If we promise ourselves to Keep Christmas Holy, we ourselves will find the Spirit of Christ instead of the "Season of Shopping ‘till we’re dropping."
In short, if we let the first decision about Christmas to be "I will Keep Christmas Holy" we and our families will experience less stress, less hurry and scurry, less arguing, and less remorse in January over a great experience miss-spent.
Spend your Christmas with God. Spend Christmas with your family and your Church. I promise Fair Haven will have many great worship opportunities this year in music, preaching, prayer, Holy Communion, fellowship, and more. My advice is to let your first over-riding decision about Christmas be to Keep Christmas Holy.
Love,
Paul
