TAKE time to be alone and ponder your relationship with Christ.
Do you have a relationship with Him? Are you
sure of heaven?
READ the story of Jesus' birth and note how people
responded - Mary, Joseph, the shepherds, Simeon and Anna, (Luke
1:26-238)
PRAISE God at Christmas. Join other Christians in celebrations
of music and praise.
HELP those in need at Christmas. Follow the example of Jesus
whose heart was
filled with compassion for those who were suffering.
KEEP your TO DO list as short as possible. Limit your social
obligations so there
is time for reflection.
USE cash when you buy gifts to avoid holiday debt.
Don't go into debt at Christmas time (Romans 13:8). Invite your
relatives to
support a mission cause instead of giving you a gift.
TELL others about the Savior. Find opportunities to give a tract
or a Bible.
REMEMBER Christ's church around the world. Some of these
churches are enduring
great hardship.
LIVE like Christ in this season. Be compassionate. Be forgiving
(especially in
mall parking lots and with harassed sales staff). Be sensitive
to the people
with whom you work and play.
BE JOYFUL at Christmas! You are celebrating the greatest event
in the history of
the world - the arrival of God in human form.
"And the angel
said unto them, Fear not:
for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall
be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of
David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord."
- Luke 2:10-11
