Having a Right Christmas

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. (John 1:1-5)
Lord, help us have a right Christmas, one about You, in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Help us not go through this season of Christmas not realizing what the birth of Christ means to each of us.
Lord, this Christmas morning help us not look under the tree at the gifts but look in our hearts to see if You are first and to give thanks for the gift of eternal life. Lord, help us today consider the power of Christmas, You are the Maker and the Master of Creation. Thank You Lord that You came to bring life into deadness, Jesus, You are the Strength of Earthly Life, the Secret of Effective Life, and the Source of Eternal Life.
The truth that God came to earth in human form is plainly announced in His Word. Lord, help us not get so wrapped up in activities and programs that we miss the immeasurable worth of knowing who that Baby was. Jesus is God! He came to save us from our sins and give us eternal life. This Christmas we should join with the wise men and shepherds and give praise to Jesus, God who became man.
Thank You, Lord that You came to bring Light into this darkness, Father, help us not get so busy this holiday that we push Christ out of Christmas.
Help us make sure that we give Christ the glory He is due today and every day.
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)

This is an awesome song by Holly Tucker about baby Jesus.
