All I Really Want for Christmas
When I watched this video I couldn’t help but thank God (numerous times) for the family that I have. So many times I forget that there are other children in the world, all over the world, who don’t have parents to love on them or tuck them in bed. And they either don’t have siblings to play with or their siblings were taken somewhere else. They are constantly waiting, wishing, and hoping to be loved, to be cherished, and to have someone they can talk to and depend on–while each of us get that and more…every single day.
While we are praying we will receive a new IPOD, the latest movie on DVD, or a hundred dollars from somebody this Christmas, all these children want is a loving family. I didn’t write this to make you go on a guilt trip, but just to remind you that your family is special. Through a strong, Christian family God can accomplish many great things, like He did with a certain family a long time ago. Jesus was born to a virgin, then He grew up and became the Ultimate Sacrifice to save each and every one of us. He did that so that you and I could be part of God’s family.
So as you celebrate Christmas this year, look around you, feel the love and joy, and thank God for what He has given you.
Merry Christmas,
Brianna
