Christmas Sanctification
I guess I could start by telling you how Christmas is my favorite time of the year or how I love to see people caring about others during this season like no other time of the year or . . .
The honest thing to say is that I do love Christmas, but I can’t help but talk about why. I love Christmas because . . .
The “do-over” of New Year’s Day can be everyday. The love of Valentine’s Day isn’t even close to God’s unconditional love. Spring Break trips make a difference on the beach. Fourth graders can share with their class what it means to worship God. The fresh start with spring can’t compare to the new thing that God has done in me. Kids turn to Jesus at Summer Camp. I see the greatness of God atop Pike’s Peak. High school & college seniors finish the race (just to start another one). I don’t have to be a fool of the fall, but I can be free for God. Camping with friends always encourages me to value people. My kids sing praise songs in the car. Every Sunday comes with new ministry opportunities. My wife is my best friend. God spoke to me through His Word today.
