Remembering the REASON for the Season
I want to share something that happened at the Christmas service at my church last Sunday because it was so profound. Our children had something planned, but the song (which had been downloaded) wouldn’t play past the first few lines and just kept repeating. And as the song started, I wasn’t at all happy to hear a song at our “Christmas” service talking about Santa Claus and shoppers at the mall, but then came a line that brought me to tears because a little boy asked, “Where’s the line to see Jesus?”…and then he goes on about the REAL reason for the Christmas season. I just sat there and cried each time as those lines were repeated, and when I got home, I had to find the song to hear the rest of it, but had no idea that was the title. Yet it is a powerful reminder of the REAL reason for this Christmas season, so I want to share it with all of you and hope you will be blessed and touched as I was. It’s Where’s the Line to See Jesus by Becky Kelley.
So let’s not get so caught up with the hustle and bustle of this time of year that we forget our Lord Jesus Who came to bring peace on earth and to reconcile us to our Heavenly Father for all of eternity. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JESUS!
