A few Christmases back, I greeted an aunt 'Happy Holidays' via email and I got a gentle reminder and lecture on how I should never greet that way because Christmas is not about celebrating the holidays but the birth of Jesus Christ our savior, hence I should always say 'Have a Merry Christmas' and yes that is writing CHRISTmas and not just the shortened Xmas - I have been doing so eversince.
Today as I scroll thru and browse my social networking accounts I have noticed that never once did I come across a greeting saying 'Happy Holidays' or 'Merry Xmas' and it made me lovingly think of my aunt and that gentle reminder slash lecture years ago.
Thank you auntie for that and Thank you dear God for giving us the greatest gift of salvation with the birth of your son Jesus!
Happy Birthday Jesus!
