At Christmas time there was a man who looked so out of place as people rushed about him in a hurried sort of pace. He looked at all the Christmas light, the tinsel everywhere, the shopping center, Santa Claus with children gathered near.
The Mall was packed with shoppers who were going to and fro. Some with smiles, and some with frowns and some too tired to go. They rested on the benches or they hurried on their way to fight the crowd for purchases to carry home that day.
The music was playing loud and clear of Santa and snowman and funny nosed reindeer. He heard people talk about the good times on the way, of parties, fun and food galore, and gifts exchanged that day. " I'd like to know what is going on," the man was heard to say, " There seems to be some sort of celebration on the way, and would you tell who this is all dressed in red and white? And why are children asking HIM about a special night?"
The answer came in disbelief, I can't believe my ears. I can't believe you do not know that Christmas time is here. The time when Santa comes around with gifts for girls and boys. When they are asleep on Christmas Eve, he leaves them books and toys. Thet man you see in red and white is Santa Claus. so sly. The children love his joyful laugh, and twinkle in his eye. . His gift packed sleigh is pulled along by very small reindeer's. As he flies quickly through the air, while darting here and there. The children learn of Santa while they are still quite small. When Christmas comes HE is the most IMPORTANT one of all.
The stranger hung his head in shame, and he closed a nail-pierced hand. His body shook in disbelief, he did not understand. A shadow crossed his stricken face, his voice was low but clear, and Jesus shed a tear.
Give Jesus the Gift of Your Heart!
May you always love Jesus
as He loves you.
Talk to Him. Trust Him.
Make time for just the two of you.
Ask Him. Listen to Him.
Invite Him along on your dreams.
Celebrate with Him. Thank Him.
Believe in Him. Imitate Him.
share His wisdom and love
with every living thing.
