the reason

you just know tis' the season to be jolly...tra..la..la...la....

shopping malls adorn themselves with all manner of colourful & shiny trappings, as if trying to outdo each other by the size/height of their christmas trees....

....radio-waves bombard your senses with yuletide songs & promotions....

...and churches showcase their efforts in spreading the message of love & salvation.

the Sunday School children at my church had their simple event yesterday...




....& i was given the task of presenting a skit for the kids &
i thought the idea of Christ's birth in a modern hospital was....

.....refreshingly different.

later in the evening, the Youths had their own program...

....& from the photos my daughter took, the theme was obviously very Starwars-like....

...the battle between Good & Evil...

no matter how the message is communicated, as long as we can look beyond the glittering tree decorations, the presents & santa clauses, & remember that we are the reason He suffered & died, it would have been a story well told.

blessed christmas, one & all!!
