Defining Christmas

How does a Christian lose Christmas? After all, isn't Christmas the essence of who we are? Somewhere in the hurry and bustle of Christmas we forget what Christmas really means. In the busyness of "making" Christmas we forget the Maker. In the "giving" we forget the Gift. Christmas was made for us. It is a gift from a Holy and Righteous God to lowly sinners like you and me. We cannot make it. Neither can we give it. We must accept it and receive it. "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6) Join Author Renee Kinlaw in a journey back to the heart of Christmas. In this short devotion you will find the truth of Christmas. You will discover that the meaning of Christmas goes far beyond twinkling lights. Even deeper than a manger scene.
