The season is about Jesus' birth. How did it evolve to Santa, trees, work parties, tacky lights and fruitcake? This season I have had a horrible time focusing on the "Christmassy" things that usually mean so much to me during December. Some things I have just avoided because it was too painful. However, some clarity has taken place. Pure Love. I'm by no means perfect at it, and I don't know if I will be able to keep it up. But I just want to love.
Isn't that what God did and why we celebrate Christmas? Love us. Send his Son, Jesus, to be a perfect baby just to have him pay for all of our sins. All of our sins. Everyday we sin and that sin has been paid for by our Jesus. There is no love that could be so pure. I'm in awe of just thinking about that right now. Maybe the lack of money, gifts, and other riff raff has left me to focus on Christ.
Pure Love Day 5 Merry Christmas.
