In this Christmas season the world will try to invade our thoughts with its commercialized view of Christmas. While we can take part, giving gifts, let us remember the best gift of all that Jesus gave us, HIMSELF—Salvation.
Greet the Christmas season in with joy and thanksgiving, remembering that Jesus is the reason for the season. I love the Christmas tree and try to relate everything on it to HIM.
1. Tree—He is the tree of life
2. Tree Trunk—Brown bark—Humanity—He came in the flesh to take back the keys and understand & help us in our weaknesses
3. Lights—He is the light of the world & in us lights up our spirit
4. Ornaments—Receiving His Holy Spirit—we receive the Fruit of the Spirit—changing us & decorating our hearts
5. Green of the tree—for New birth—In Christ we are a new creation
6. The White lights—for the purity of Jesus & as our Savior & Lord He purifies us
7. Red—for the Blood of Christ that washes us clean!
8. Purple—Royalty of Jesus Christ & in Him we are co-heirs
9. Gold—Deity of Jesus Christ—Who reigns as King of Kings
10. Silver—Redemption that comes from Jesus Christ
11. Blue—heavens and eternity—Our home in Christ
As you look at the colors of Christmas—Remember Jesus Christ—He is the reason for it all!
(John 15:13) "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends."
There is no greater love than to give you life for another and Jesus did that for us. Whether HIS birth happened on December 25th or another, the real reason to celebrate is that He came, and He came for us. Give Him praise and thanksgiving. Enjoy the season, remembering what it is all about!
