This month is Christmas, so how can we not talk about Jesus' birth?!? God sent His son to be born and later to die for us. With the Christmas season comes presents, family time and decorations. Let us not forget why we celebrate Christmas. Many people have their focus on everything else at Christmas but Jesus. Don't be like that!. Don't get so wrapped up in the Christmas cheer that you forget to thank God for Jesus being born in Bethlehem.
