Merry Christmas

The Good News Today Is...we can make a difference. This week I am taking into serious consideration an e-mail I received that begs for a call to action. Instead of complaining that stores and public services only say, "Happy Holidays," take every opportunity to wish all that you meet a "Merry Christmas." Instead of complaining that nativity scenes and religious decorations are prohibited from public places, put a nativity scene up at your house to declare you believe. Instead of complaining about the decisions at the White House to remove all signs of Christ from their Christmas, write them a letter telling them you are praying for them, and then really PRAY for them. Actions speak louder than words and if our actions are geared toward putting Christ back into Christmas, we will make a difference. Somewhere around 80% of the U.S. professes Christianity to some degree. Don't let the actions of the 20% ruin what we believe in! Say Merry Christmas to everyone you meet.
