At Holy Yoga we are focusing the entire month on honoring the reason for Christmas. History cannot verify that Jesus was actually born in December, but because of all the holidays designed to brighten winter solstice somebody decided we would celebrate the birth of Christ in December. Our worship this month ends with one simple thought: "don't save it all for Christmas Day." We are committed to honoring the name of Jesus in our lives every day.
In the midst of that, we have to make sense out of the pagan part of the holiday season for young minds. My friend Meredith has the perfect policy concerning gifts: Something you want, Something you need, Something to Play with, Something to Read!
Ah! I love that. Gives me license to put socks in the stocking as long as we manage that new video game or Polly Pocket accessory. And new Bibles for everyone! Well, or Nancy Drew books, Junie B. Jones, Hannah Montana, but you get the drift.
Love your holiday. Love the Lord with all your heart. You are loved here at Holy Yoga!
