Reflections on Christmas...a little late! (Started before Christmas...)

The Christmas season is supposed to be all about Jesus, but we all know it is far from that.  To the world, it is all about Santa and the presents.  I don't know if Michael Buble knows the Baby in the manger, but he at least sang what Christmas is about as I sit here listening to his Christmas CD.  He is singing "Silent Night" right now which takes me back to the real meaning of Christmas.  It is so disappointing to me--how the world views Christmas.  And, to a Christian, it's not just about the baby in the manger--it's about what the Romans and the Jews did to Jesus--why He came to earth in the first place...TO DIE--for you and for me...for our sins!  Jesus only spoke the truth because He IS THE TRUTH!  I guess people just did not want to hear it because you know how some times the truth really hurts?  Well, He must have hurt and pricked their evil consciences.  I think that is probably why the world rejects Him so much...because the truth hurts, and no one in this life wants to feel pain.  But Jesus came to give us life...not just on this earth but in the life to come.  Do you know Him personally?  Is He your Lord and Savior?  Have you trusted Him as your ONLY way to get to heaven...because, after all, that's why He came in the first place--as that Baby in that manger--to give you Eternal Life.  If you want to know more about this, then you can get on Emmaus.com,  get into a Bible study,  and they will show you how to get "the rest of the story."
