The 1st Day of the 25 Days of Christmas

I'm going to try to post something everyday. For the next 25 days. I was reading last night that we should have a day for commemorating the birth of our Savior. Whether the birth of Jesus happened on the 25th of December is not what's important. We should not argue over the day, because we would miss the real meaning of Christmas. And that meaning is Heaven stooped low enough to earth for man to touch Heaven. I thought that was so beautiful when I read it and I thought I would share it.

One of my favorite songs, sung by Wade Spencer is "He's Not Just For Christmas." This song was wrote by his sister Geniece Spencer Ingold. It is a beautiful song. I'm going to try to type the whole song out. I'm going off my memory though.

He's Not Just For Christmas

wrote by: Geniece Spencer Ingold

Christmas is the time when the Christ child's on our minds,

And families get together bringing gifts all ribbon tied.

But when the season is over and the hollies put away.

Don't let go of the spirit, hold the truth, the life, the way.

Don't put him away with the tinsel and garland.

Don't box him up with your Christmas tree.

Don't lock him away to unpack annually.

But store him in your heart for all the world to see.

He's not just for Christmas, but the whole year through.

And when you keep him close by, there will be no Christmas blues.

So when you pack the manger and the little baby too.

Just remember he is grown up and he died for me and you.

Don't put him away with the tinsel and garland.

Don't box him up with your Christmas tree.

Don't lock him away to unpack annually.

But store him in your heart for all the world to see.

But store him in your heart for all the world to see.

Remember Jesus is the Reason for the Season!!!
