CHRISTMAS PREPARATIONS
Today's reading: Jude

Just a few reminders as you head out this Christmas Sunday to your respective churches...

The message, as wonderful as it may be, is not the reason for the season.

The church, how ever beautifully it may be decorated, is not the reason for the season.

The music, regardless of how perfectly presented it may be executed, is not the reason for the season.

The faces in the congregation, no matter how many or how varied, are not the reason for the season.

The Christmas programs, despite the staging and elaborate props, are not the reason for the season.

The new dress. The gifts you might receive. The spirit in the air. None of these are the meaning of the season...

"All glory to him, who alone is God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Yes, glory, majesty, power and authority belong to him, in the beginning, now and forevermore. Amen" Jude verse 25 NLT
