Holiday Stewardship - Part 7

7. Remember the True Meaning of Christmas

It may sound like a cliche, but remembering "the reason for the season" can help you put things in perspective. Christmas is about remembering God's greatest gift, His only Son, and helping to bring Christ's love into the world. When you're feeling overwhelmed by holiday task consider asking yourself: "Is this a fitting way to remember Jesus' birth?" or "Will this help to bring God's love into the world (or to my family, parish or community)?" Keeping this focus will help make Christmas both a giving experience and a deeply fulfilling one.

I think that speaks for itself.

From all the staff at Resurrection: May your holy day be very blessed by the greatest Gift of all. Merry Christmas!
