Millie slumped in front of her computer. She was looking for Christmas on the Internet. She grumbled, “There are 49 million sites on Christmas. How am I supposed to find out about the true meaning of this holiday?”
There were sites on Santa Claus, the Grinch, and lots of places selling cards, trees and other products. There were tons of recipes and descriptions of ways Christmas is celebrated around the world. Millie grew more confused.
She wondered, “Isn’t Christmas about the birth of Jesus Christ? After all, Christ is in the word Christmas.”
She opened a Bible and read about the birth of Jesus. She said, “This is what I am looking for… the REAL meaning of Christmas!”
Friend, Jesus Christ is the real reason for this season. Look for Him this season too.
