I joined my children to watch their cartoons today and I must
confess I was disturbed by what I saw
Lots of the shows was Christmas themed. But there is zero
mention of the Christ being celebrated.
Emphasis are on holidays, the Christmas tree, the Father Christmas,
party, feasting but deliberately shunning that the day means Christ Mass, or
simply put; His birthday.
It dawned on me that if we do not take time to teach our
children, a lot of what they watch will give them all sorts of ideas of Christmas.
So I encourage all believers to take a moment to explain the meaning of this
day and correct the distracting emphasis on objects such as the tree, chicken
or even the party.
Christmas is a day of a promise delivered. A day God gave
us His best to free us from our worst.
For God so loved
the world that He gave us His only begotten Son John3:16
Jesus is the reason for all the merriment. Let’s keep the emphasis on Him and deliberately do all we
can to educate all.
