Scrooges

There are just too many 'scrooges' in this world. People who just cannot let others enjoy themselves.

So what if Christmas is not the actual day of Jesus birth?
So what if birthdays are not mentioned in the bible?
So what if certain holidays came out of paganism?
Isn't it our hearts that God looks at?

I truly believe that Jesus loves our honoring Him and enjoys it as much as we do.

If we celebrate with the right heart, then we are showing His heart.

If God is in us and we choose to enjoy this season and be generous to others because of the season then it would be foolish for God not to enjoy it with us. God is not foolish! Also, many people are blessed this time of the year with things that they desperately need. God is glorified in this!

So to all those 'scrooges' out there remember it is more blessed to give than to receive. This includes extending people who do not agree with you the benefit of all your doubts and arguments.

Remember even 'Srooge' came around at the end.

Be blessed,
Shifra and Yochanan (my husband, John)
