CHRISTmas or just chirstmas

Hi all,

Today is a day that the Lord has made...

I was just wondering how many people celebrates this day, not for Santa and gift giving, but for our salvation, Jesus Christ.

So often people get so wrapped up in celebrating gift giving and good eating but I think it's important that we realize what this day truly represents. Give honor and glory to God and his only begotten son Jesus Christ.

God Bless you all and please have a safe and Merry CHRISTmas.

Just a little side note... did you all know that writing "Xmas" was not created only to make the word shorter. The X is a representation of the unknown and it stemed from people that celebrated CHRISTmas for the gift giving and good eating and not for Christ. So just remember, when you think you're "shorthanding" the phrase please be aware that you're not giving glory to Jesus Christ :-)

God's Blessings!
