the true meaning of CHRISTmas.

I've been thinking a lot about Christmas. About the true meaning of Christmas. Nowadays, people get so wrapped up in the hustle & bustle of everything going on around them - and they just don't stop to really think about the reason that celebrate Christmas.
I have caught myself getting wrapped up in gift buying, and stressing, wondering if I will have enough money to buy everyone what I want to get them. I think the thing that I've caught myself doing the most is stressing. And I hate that.
I keep having to remind myself that Christmas is not about those things. Christmas isn't about shopping or buying the perfect gift. It's not about Christmas parties, or candies. It's a celebration of His birth :)

I know it's not how many presents you buy or get it's about Jesus birthday and so many forget. When I was growing up my Dad and Mom would read the Christmas story out of the Bible every Christmas morning.
