Can you tell I like music...just a bit? I've often thought my name should have been Melody as I LOVE music...all kinds from Hymns to Contemporary. You may get tired of me posting videos but hey, it's my blog. Something I tire of is the lack of Christ in Christmas. I've heard of schools where kids cannot sing Christmas carols that mention Christ, people that only say "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas," running around to find that "perfect" gift, people nervous about preparing the "perfect" meal, Santa Claus getting more attention than the Savior of the World.
This video is of the song "Mary Did You Know." This is one of my favorite Christmas songs. As a young girl, I thought it was neat that I shared Jesus' mother's name. Now, as a mom myself, I often have wondered what it must have been like to give birth to, raise, watch my son...who was also my Savior. What stories, wonderment, and amazement must have accompanied Mary many times.
Christmas cookies are nice (just ask Mark..he's addicted), presents are great, family time is nice, yet without Christ in Christmas it is just another day. So, let's all not worry if the meal isn't done right, we couldn't find that "perfect" gift, or if someone blinked on the Christmas Card photo. HE is the reason for the season! Merry Christmas Everybody!
