JESUS My Reason for the Season!

Where HO HO HO turns into Ho Ho Holy Spirit ! When I look at this picture of Hannah and Isaac in front of the Christmas tree, I'm reminded of my childhood and when I believed in "Santa Claus." At Christmas time I would put on my best behavior, I'd be extra nice...after all Santa's elves were watching. My focus was on being my "best" for Santa. I wanted to guarantee that Santa would bring what I wanted.
Later on in my younger/ teen years, I finally learned what Christmas was really about! The birth of Jesus Christ our Saviour. God's greatest gift to man ! Yes, I still love to give gifts to others and just share the love of God. But the main thing is that I have fallen in love with Jesus and He is where my focus is on Christmas now. It means so much to be on my "best behavior" for him, I love to feel his presence in my life and there is nothing like his Holy Spirit living and moving in and through me. I'm guaranteed eternal life with God and that's my prayer for others. Oh that they could know Jesus and what he really came to this earth for. Remember this season, to proclaim the REASON...and that is JESUS !
