I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, and not to have a substitute for a happy holiday or merry xmas. I heard a democratic commentator say on TV this morning say to have a happy holiday. DUH this holiday is Christmas. It is a Christmas Tree not a Holiday tree. We are a fortunate country that can express our beliefs and our desires in hope that all of our friends and countrymen can enjoy the belief in the miracle of the birth of Christ without persecution. This is not just a myth but a fact that Jesus lived. You may be a believer or not, but the facts are from history that Jesus lived. Some have said that he was not God on earth but just a great prophet. You can go there, but I have finally found out that there cannot be any other choice that is rational or makes sense.
In my life I have been all over the place with whether I was a true believer or not. I have recently realized that it doesn't matter if I am a believer. No one will judge me or condemn me if I am or am not. There are many people that have an alternate view of my religion. I cannot judge them or will not even try to persuade them to my way. It is not important to me. I know that all of us would have an epiphany and cry our hearts out if we knew that it was a concrete fact that God came to earth in the form of Jesus just to save our sorry ass.
Think about it for a moment. If God returned to earth today in the clouds, we would all become a believer because we would have facts to prove it. If it is a true fact, then we have to be joyful and thankful. If it is not a true fact, then we have nothing on this earth to look forward to but a granite marker with just a few clever words..... I think I will believe with faith.
I want to submit this prayer for all of you, that you may be blessed. You may look for a sign or an event to help you or to make you more confident with your conviction. I submit that you are probably ok with what you believe now or you may have pause at what I am saying.... This prayer just says that may you rejoice that Jesus came to earth to save all of us from our sins. We can only believe from faith. The facts are clear. He did come to earth as God on earth and the forgiver of our sins or as some have said a great prophet. You have the freedom to choose which one. May you choose wisely. Amen, Merry Christmas and a Happy Roll Tide year.
