Pondering the will and ways of God…

Who will make it to heaven, or who will be in hell? Is this something that any of us can say we know for sure. Is there anyway to know that the person who cuts us off in traffic will get what they deserve? And just what is it that they deserve?
It seems interesting that we say we follow God and do what He has called us to do when we do not love our fellow man, women and children. We are called to love the person, and not necessarily like what they do. We are called to love, and give as Jesus gave to us. As we await the birth of the savior of the world, we need to reflect on who we are, and whose we are.
What is it about Christmas that gives us the power to go on. What is it about Christmas that shows us love? With the commercialization of the holidays, it seems harder and harder to find the real meaning behind the child in the manger. It is harder and harder to see what God is pointing us to…
The beginning of the story of Christ is not the manger, Christ was with God at the beginning, and the point of the baby in the manger is not the fact that we get stuff. It is the birth of our savior, have we gotten him a gift? Have we even tried to give him what he deserves?
It is hard to think about this, and even harder to do it.
The point of Christmas is not the baby, the point of Christmas is “the end” of the story, which is not the end, but merely our beginning…

It is not in the presents, or the feeling or the snow, to quote Go Fish…

Christmas is about the Cross and what Christ has done for us. Love as you have been loved. Live as though no one is watching…
