Watch the children around you during the holidays. Look at the magic in their smiles and the light in their eyes. Make sure you tell them about Jesus. A friend of mine reminded me, “Santa gives you what you want and Jesus gives you what you need.”
The magic of Christmas needs the Christ child, the baby born to save the world. Children understand Him better than we do. Just let them know, He is their God. He will never leave them. He will be there beside them for the rest of their lives. The Bible lets us know how important it is to train our children in the faith.
Train up a child in the way he should go, even when he is old, he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6
Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them…1 Peter 5:2a
“These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.” Deuteronomy 6:6-7
Let them believe in the magic of the season and let them believe in Christ!
Amen
