is it really over?

 "...the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."   Romans 6:23


For the most part, celebrating CHRISTmas was like old times.  The wrapping, the unwrapping, the eating, the cooking, the eating, the visiting, the eating, the decorating, the undecorating, the singing, the traveling, the cleaning, the eating. It was heavenly gathering with family and friends. But now CHRISTmas is over, and most are getting back to cautious living.  

What should we do as we leave the JOY of the CHRISTmas season and return to a lingering watchful normal?  Keep God first in our mind. If we succeed, we will not neglect nor forget to keep the true spirit and reason of CHRISTmas alive in our heart and actions every day. 
 
I hope more than anything your CHRISTmas was full of His wonder, joy and love.  
The days ahead will be brighter if we put our decorations up in the attic, but not Jesus.  His Presence is our daily present -- and one designed for sharing, allowing others to witness His goodness through us.  Let's keep the merry in CHRISTmas going.  We live in a world in great need of Him.

we are loved and chosen by God,
may we live, love and do like we believe it,
veneal
