Let’s re-spell Christmas not just in a song but in our lives!, Be good and he’ll bring you everything in your Christmas Alphabet - Daily Bible Reflections December 23,2013

CHRISTMAS IS…

 
“She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” – Matthew 1:21
 
“C is for the Candy trimmed around the Christmas tree.
       H is for the Happiness with all the family.
       R is for the Reindeer prancing by the window pane.
       I is for the Icing on the cake as sweet as sugar cane.
       S is for the Stocking on the chimney wall.
       T is for the Toys beneath the tree so tall.
       M is for the Mistletoe where everyone is kissed.
       A is for the Angels who make up the Christmas list.
       S is for old Santa who makes every kid his pet.
       Be good and he’ll bring you everything in your Christmas Alphabet.”
       The more you sing this, the more you discover that this alphabet doesn’t really spell out Christmas. Don’t get me wrong. I love this song. Yet subliminally, the definition above spells out the modern-day view of Christmas: commercialized. Harassed. Rushed. Irritatated. Swamped. Trapped in traffic. Money-wasting.Apathetic. Stressed.
       Merely two days to go. Let’s bring back the true meaning of Christmas. Christmas is Christ + mas = Christ + His people = Emmanuel = God is with us. Christmas is the birth of our salvation. Heaven born to earth. The Birthday of Jesus. Obet Cabrillas (kpreacherobet@gmail.com)
 
Reflection: Let’s re-spell Christmas not just in a song but in our lives!
 
Jesus, You are the Reason for the season. May You be the center of my celebration.
 
Blessed Jacopone da Todi, pray for us.
