Christmas is coming, with all the parties, decorations, carols, lines, traffic, credit cards and crowds. At a time where we should be focused on the reason of the season, we’re lost in the crazy rush of trying to go everywhere and seem stuck overspending on everything. We spend over one trillion dollars globally each year at Christmas! An entire world drowning in the same debt, and before we know it ‘Merry Christmas’, becomes ‘Buried Christmas’. We have to ask: is it really worth it?
Is it possible that buried under all that Christmas chaos lies something greater? 2000 years ago, God launched a conspiracy to save the world when He sent Jesus as helpless baby instead of a conquering king. Jesus came to walk, grieve and celebrate with us, and he’s still here with us today! Christmas begins and ends with Jesus, so let’s worship Him fully this Christmas, and love as He’s loved us. This year let’s spend less and give more of ourselves as we conspire together to spread Jesus’ love!
