Seed for Dec 25

Col 2:16-17
16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day.
17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.
(NIV)

Some people keep holy days, and others do not keep or celebrate them. But the Word is quite plain that we are not to judge one another in respect to a holy day. Whether we keep that day or refrain from keeping or honoring that day, we do it to the Lord. For that reason no one has a right to judge us about keeping or not keeping and we then have no right to judge another in the same manner.

As a result….let me say, I honor this day, Christmas as a time of family and friendship, a time of rest and giving and a wonderful season for thinking about Jesus. It makes me no difference whether He was or was not born on this day. I know that in the “fullness of time” He came to his own. So my celebration is for Jesus and family and friends.

My prayer is for everyone in the sound of these words to be blessed in this season and remembering Jesus author and finisher of our faith. Be blessed.
