No, I don't believe in Santa, no, I don't buy a tree or cut one down, and no, I do not spend time decorating as a way to celebrate the birth of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I do however, give gifts, have fun, and most of all, bless the needy. Of course, I let my children have fun! They wear new clothes and get lovely presents too. We all rejoice, take photographs and eat and drink.
However I tell them the truth. Santa is not real and Jesus was not born on December the 25th, the so called popular Christmas day. Yes, I let them know that the only way they can show their love to Christ is by obeying Him, by adhering to the bible. We celebrate the love of our Savior and appreciate His goodness, relishing in His grace. Merry Christmas everyone and a prosperous 2008!
