Before I was a regenerate Christian, Christmas was a time of year I actually reflected on God and Jesus. Since I have been regenerate, I enjoy Christmas less, because the best part of Christmas is what I carry in my heart every day, but with less stress and expectations.
A few things:
1. Some people, including Christians, are natural extroverts who LOVE Christmas. And I love that for them. In no way am I saying that if you are a born-again Christian you shouldn't love Christmas. GO YOU!
2. I know these posts come off as "holier than thou" to non-believers. It's not that. I could have never brought myself to a place where my favorite book is the Bible and I carry Christmas in my heart every day. Only God did that. This is the basis of the Christian faith. We are unable, but He is able.
Hoping, praying and wishing every member here comes a little closer to the Baby in the manger this Christmas. It's the only part of Christmas that lasts!
