Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:2 (NLT)
I was just wondering.....
What do you think God thinks about the way we celebrate Christmas?
I wonder if it makes him happy or sad. I wonder if he looks at all the elaborate decorations and thinks about the manger and thinks we missed the point.
I wonder if he looks at the money we spend on giving each other (and ourselves) extravagant gifts instead of giving to people that Jesus’ heart is breaking for and shakes his head.
I wonder if it bothers him that we only really reach out to those in need during this season...because it’s what you are supposed to do. You know, that we don’t do it all the time.... like he wants us to.
Of course, I am not saying everyone celebrates Christmas like this. But, most of us do.
I wonder what he thinks about the fact that we don’t wonder what he thinks when we are celebrating Him.
