It's the most WONDERFUL tine of the year!

Okay.....will you PLEASE tell me WHY during this "special " time of year....the time of year everyone is supposed to be ..."so cheerful and happy and FULL of love" it is JUST THE OPPOSITE?

I am not talking "everyone else" either!

I am talking everyone I run into! All the church attending synagogue going mosque patrons there are!

What ever happened to ...."It's the most wonderful time of the year......."

It just seems to get progressively worse every year and you know I can't find a single individual that will admit to taking part in the effort of "grumpordum" (((new word))) but I think we have all at one time or another fallen prey to it's almost uncontrollable and most assuredly undisrable outbursts from time to time.; leaving the person or persons on the receiving end feeling less than "wonderful"....this time of year!

I truly do think we need to take some time, no matter what we celebrate, be it Christmas Day, Ede, Sukot or Hanukkah and seriously THINK about WHY we are celebrating. The Spirit of the matter...you know?

I seriously think we get way too hung up on our selves sometimes... (.again, Amy's pet peeve) and separate from each other and focus on the "celebration" and "tradition" far more than we should rather than giving the weight of the excitement and reverence and respect to the REASON behind the HOLIDAY! ~ Ya know what I mean?

I am by NO means saying we should be little the celebrations for any of the above mentioned! On the contrary, I think if we were to do a little better job of "focusing:" on the reason behind the celebrations I think it would lend to a far greater and much more memorable time!

I guess I am just a wee little tired of all the ruckus of the "Holiday" season.
Which is so sad, because I love the holidays and I truly believe we are suppose to love this time of year!
But I also don't think we are suppose to have hearts full of unforgivness and bitterness during this time of year either....and I think that is why sooo many get so up tight....maybe that is why my heart is so grieved right now....because of the unrest that is so prevalent in society.

(((sigh)))

Oh well....what can "we" do but love through Yeshua HaMashiach!


Merry Christ Mass every one!

Happy Hanukkah!!!

I love you all in and through Jesus our Messiah!
