Christmas

Christmas has always been my favorite holiday. But the only difference now is that I love Christmas for a different reason. When I was little, I only thought about getting all those gifts that were sitting under the tree. Christmas didn't mean much to me other than the fact that it was a day I looked forward to because I would get the coolest toys. These past few years have been different for me, though. This might be a little bit of a cliche, but I've been trying to keep in the mind the reason for why we celebrate this holiday. The world only celebrates this as a day to give and get presents for each other. There's no deeper meaning to Christmas. But as Christians, it's important to remember that we're celebrating the fact that Jesus was born as a little baby to be our Savior and Lord. I pray that God will never let me forget the reason for this season.
