Merry Christmas

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the town not a sign of Baby Jesus was anywhere to be found. The people were all busy with Christmas time chores like decorating, and baking, and shopping in stores.  
 No one sang "Away in a manger, no crib for a bed." Instead, they sang of Santa dressed-up in bright red. Mama watched Martha Stewart, Papa drank beer from a tap. As hour upon hour the presents they'd wrap.
When what from the TV did they suddenly hear? 'Cept an ad.. which told of a big sale at Sears. So away to the mall they all flew like a flash... Buying things on credit...and others with cash! And, as they made their way home from their trip to the mall, did they think about Jesus? Oh, no... not at all. Their lives were so busy with their Christmas time things no time to remember Christ Jesus, the King.
There were presents to wrap and cookies to bake. How could they  
stop and remember who died for their sake? To pray to the Savior... they had no time to stop. Because they needed more time to "shop till they dropped!"
On Wal-Mart! On K-mart! On Target! On Penney's!
On Hallmark! On Zales! A quick lunch at Denny's From the big stores downtown to the stores at the mall they would dash away, dash away, and visit them all! And up on the roof, there arose such a clatter as grandpa hung icicle lights up on his brand new stepladder.
He hung lights that would flash. He hung lights that would twirl. Yet, he never once prayed to Jesus... Light of the World.
Christ's eyes... how they twinkle! Christ's Spirit... how merry! Christ's love... how enormous! All our burdens... He'll carry! So instead of being busy, overworked, and uptight, let's put Christ back in Christmas and enjoy some good nights!
Merry Christmas, My Friends with apologies to all non-Christians and atheists who may be offended by this post.

Grin Thanks Thomas.
 
Apologies to non-Christians is not necessary. The Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddist, and all that I can't recall right now have their own holidays. We can wish them well on their days.
 
For the atheists, screw 'em. If they don't like posts about Christmas, peace on Earth and good will to men then they don't have to read it. They have a mouse and can click off.

Hmmmmmm does this indicate that my idea of getting a large tub, filling it with beer and going bobbing for baptists is out?
Just curious.
