Jesus is coming, open your heart
Advent is nearly 3 weeks away, but already Christmas is on my mind.
I stopped by the mall this weekend and was bombarded with corny Christmas songs, glitzy decorations and the troubling Photo With Santa stage, complete with screaming children.
Go ahead and call me Scrooge or even un-American. Its infuriating and appalling to see how commercialized and consumer driven Christmas is today. Yuck.
And then, Jo comes home from school this afternoon and starts singing and hand motioning:
I have a secret, what can it be?
Someone is coming, wait and see!
Come, let's get ready, hurry, let's start!
Jesus is coming, open your heart!
Sing, Hosanna! Jesus is coming!
Time to get ready, open your heart!
No wonder sending our girls to catholic school is a no-brainer for us.
Christ is the reason for the season. Let's try to remember that
