"My Decemer"- LP
Christmas Eve, I've finished wrapping everything and am getting ready for bed.
Thats all the news I've got, so lets talk. It's been a rough year for alot of people, myself very much included. But we can all rest in a peace that the birth of our Lord and Savior was born on the day everyone celebrates.. unfortunately, theyre only celebrating a hollow shell of what the day should be for them because they dont know it's true meaning. The day lies in celebration of Jesus' birth as a human and began His life as one uf us. This marked the beginning of His example to be "IN the world, but not OF the world" which means that it is possible to turn down all sins the world has to offer. However, thats a different story. Jesus' birth is often not understood because how could a baby be born of a virgin? By our standards, it cant happen, which is why it would be deemed as a "miracle", im sure youve heard the word before. It applies to when an event that is impossible by many or all standards happens. So how does the virgin get pregnant then? God says so, and it is. Picture it like the power to make anything happen that you want, and thats what it is.
And what purpose was the virgin birth? In order for Jesus to be born and able to lead a sinless life, he needed to break the chain of being born from sin. Not to say that Mary would have had a baby conceived from sin, no, but that all people are sinners, and once born from a sinner, it is only human nature to sin. Jesus needed a nature in Him that wasnt human in order to pull away from it's call. Try to fathom that He wasnt 50/50 between God and man, but that He was 100% man and 100% God.. because He wasnt immune to human needs and frailities, however, He possessed powers that went beyond human ability. Thats why it was necesary to be born from a virgin, she was untouched by another man and therefore, unable to say it was conceived from him..
Anyway, Christmas is the day we celebrate Jesus' birth, and most people dont know it.. we need to spread the joy that is Christmas' true meaning. Tho it's admitable, alot of things about Christmas have nothing to do with Jesus (thousands of christmas lights everwhere.. the only light in the story of Jesus' birth was for the star of bethlehem over the inn [why trees have a star on the top- underneath the star lies the greatest of gifts, we just kinda took that idea and changed it alittle] and all the candy canes and egg nog really dont have much to do with Jesus, unless you turn the candy cane upside down, then you make a "J" for the first letter of His' name, but i doubt thats why they were made) but anyway... Jesus' birth is what gave this holiday it's grounding, it's the least that can be done to remember it.

Well that was great fun. In other news, I got a few more animes to watch from my friend (HAZZZAH!!!) and I impressed myself with watching 3 different animes in a total 2.5 days.. hahaha. i have no life.. anyway, thats all the news I've got, Merry Christmas y'all.
