Today around the world marks Christmas Day.
Christmas
This day marks the arrival of a fat man in a suit climbing down the chimney and leaving presents under a tree.
The world sees it as a time for gift-giving and unwrapping presents. A time of Santa Claus and eight flying reindeer, sometimes nine. The stories of Frosty the Snowman, Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, and many more.
There was a show that came on the air in 1965. I hadn’t been born yet. However, it was called A Charlie Brown Christmas. It did have a scene that referenced the real reason for the day.
Real Reason
It is the birth of Jesus Christ, and he gave us the best gift ever—the gift of internal life.
And behold, I am the world’s light and life” (3 Ne. 11:10–11).
In John 1:4,” In him was life; and the life was the light of men.”
No matter what you celebrate, we must remember what this day means—the birth of Christ in a manger all those years ago.
It is all about the gift of giving.
Wish You
I want to wish everyone a very merry Christmas!!
