Keeping CHRIST in Christmas

Something that bugs me is "Happy Holidays," "Seasons Greetings," etc. People are losing the meaning of CHRISTmas. Christmas is not about presents. It's about our Savior being born. He was sent to this earth to die on the cross for OUR sins. How selfless? If we are supposed to be like Christ, doesn't that mean we should be selfless and not worry about getting, but giving? I'm not saying I'm great at this. Truth is-it's something for me that needs a lot of work. That's why I need God in my life. Without him I would fail at everything. He fills in those spots where I fail. Writing about it helps me, though. When I put the challenge out there, it's a way to keep others accountable, and them help me. If I want to help others, I need to pray that God gives me a giving heart and not a greedy heart. It breaks my heart to see "Happy Holidays" "Seasons Greetings" and no Merry CHRISTmas. After all, Jesus is the reason for the season.
I hope you all have a blessed CHRISTmas spending time with people you love.
