getting last minute gifts You can ays when it Christmas time because everywhere you look you see other people doing shopping just like you Millions of lights and displays television the new crop of Christmas gifts and giveaways just meant for this time of year art everywhere So the atmosphere is created spend spend spend But I suppose lhal expected After all everyone is meant to prepare for the big day People expect you to put up lights and a tree That sail part of the festivities and these days festivities to be the important thing Naturally everyone gets caught up in this commercial low because we all need a break from everyday worries and pro blems to enjoy Ihc holiday a rest from school and work But are we really relaxing Are we enjoying the Real carting of Christmas or have we lost it in the hustle and bustle of shopping malls But how can we attempt to find something thai we lost when we don even know what is How do we achieve ihe Real Meaning of Christmas we don I understand if It something to think about In the world today there seems to be two versions of Ihe Real One version is that we should virtually forget the religious part of Christmas We should in fact just enjoy the festivities the parties the food and gifts The other version seems to that we should go lo the opposite extreme Christmas Ihen becomes a time for prayer and praising God nothing more But God work through people t he really expect us to be happy and joyful on the of His Son birthday I believe lhat he does So let not just forget about Christ but let us remember thai we are celebrating His birthday I sure that He would like us do this by being happy and sharing gifts Not only material ones but also those of care love and concern for others In this way we can keep this important day as a true where prayer and attendance at Church is important But also where we let our happiness and joy spread lo others In this way we will truly find the Real Meaning of Christmas S
