Christmas is alive!

I meant to write this earlier and didn't.

I wasn't going to because Christmas is "over" (well not really in my opinion)

but then I keep thinking about it, so maybe it is my push to write it. Sometimes I need a big push but God is faithful.

Seasons Greetings, Happy Holidays, Merry Festivus, Happy day-off-work.

Sometimes I think Christmas is not alive in our secular world, it is alive in my heart and in the hearts of many of our lives but not "out there".

but maybe I am wrong..........

In the past week leading up to Christmas, I have seen signs in major stores saying "Merry Christmas", I have heard cashiers say "Merry Christmas" as I leave. I have heard "Merry Christmas" from other shoppers if I happen to bump into them or vice versa (I am not very graceful walking at times) even radio announcers have been heard to say "Merry Christmas".

not Seasons Greetings, Happy Holidays, Merry Festivus, Happy day-off-work.

Christmas is alive in my town. Is it in yours?

Soli Deo Gloria
