THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF CHRISTMAS

The most important part of Christmas
isn't presents you will receive.
It isn't glitter, stars, and tinsel
or the angel on top of the tree.

The most important part of Christmas
isn't the family dinner you will share.
It isn't even the big church choirs
singing Silent Night for all to hear.

The most important part of Christmas
is the One they sing about.
It's all about the Baby Jesus
how He came to bring us out.

The most important part of Christmas
is found in Luke chapter 2 verse 7.
She gave birth to her firstborn son,
our Savior, God sent down from heaven.

For a lot of people Christmas is just about decorations, parties, presents and big family dinners. For others it's about what they don't have...presents and their family to share dinner with. Whatever scenario you might find yourself in this year the important part of Christmas is Jesus. You might not have money for presents, friends for parties or your family to be with, but...you can have the best part of Christmas...JESUS. The greatest event in history took place when Jesus was born. The Messiah and Savior of the world came to earth.

But, Jesus was born here for one reason...to die for you, so that you can live. The best thing that could happen to you this Christmas is if you would accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. He is waiting for you to ask Him into your life. You don't have to be anybody special and you don't have to change anything about yourself. Just pray a simple prayer asking Jesus to forgive you of your sins and to come into your life. Ask Him to help you turn away from your present way of living and help you to only live for Him. Thank Him for doing that. Then you will have the best thing ever to celebrate this year. A whole new life!!

Read the Christmas story for yourself. It is found in Luke 2.

After you read it you can decide for yourself what the most important part of Christmas is for you.
