....and That's why there's a Christmas Day

Today is my first Christmas post.

It is a time when Friends and Family join together and celebrate  - But what is it that we are actually celebrating?

Could we all spare a minute or two today to remember the reason for the Season.  Perhaps the Hymn we used to sing in Sunday School sums it up.... 

When I was just a youngster Christmas meant one thing

that I'd be getting lots of toys that day!

I learned a whole lot different when Mother sat me down

and taught me to spell Christmas - this way....

C - is for the Christ Child - Born upon this day

H - for Herald Angels in the Sky

R - is MY Redeemer

I - for Israel

S - is for  the Star that shone so bright

T - is for The Wise Men, they who travelled far

M - is for the Manger where He lay

A - is ALL He stands for

S - means Shepherds came

and That's why there's a Christmas Day

and That's why there's a Christmas Day!

May The Lord Bless you and Keep you. Where ever you are.
