Silent Night?
Christmas time is getting here very quickly! In this season we are so busy- you walk into a grocery store and it's noise and confusion! Everywhere you go there's noise- we begin to wonder who thought up the song 'Silent Night' and what world they lived in!
Christmas is supposed to be the time that we remember Jesus coming to earth to become a man- enabling Him to then live on earth for a short while before going to the cross to die for our sins. However, we rush around everywhere without taking the time to think about much more than how much the gift for our mom is on sale for. I'm not saying this is bad, I like the busy Christmas season, buying gifts for people, and spending time with my favorite people! We just need to remember every once in a while, to sit down someplace where it's quiet, say a prayer, and refocus on what the season is really all about. A good time to do this is in the beginning of your church service. Maybe during the singing just take a few seconds to silently pray and ask the Lord to speak to your heart. That way you will be focused on the message and not the 'to do' list running through your head.
Ask God to really speak to you and use your life to help others this Christmas. And may I be the first to say it to you? MERRY CHRISTMAS!
