Okay, probably not the best post for a Monday, but then again maybe it’s the perfect post for a Monday. These are just a few things that bug me. Granted, they might shouldn’t. But they do. Okay? Or not.
Angels: Angels don’t bug me at all. I’m grateful for them. But people are not angels, never will be angels, do not graduate to angel-dom at any point in our existence.
Angels: Angels are not “babies” or “cupids” or “ladies”. I do believe they can appear as either sex here on earth as needed, but never, not even once, are they portrayed as “children” or “females” in the Bible. They are powerful, often frightful, of unique designs, and occupy some kind of heavenly hierarchy.
Holiday Greetings, Happy Holidays, Warmest Wishes, Winter Programs
Santa Claus. Not he himself really, but the idea of him being all-knowing. In other words having God-like capabilities. Isn’t it interesting how people can tout “punishment” from Santa for being “naughty” and “reward” from Santa for “being nice”? Duh. So, let’s just make Santa God in order to have Christmas—er, Happy Holidays. Riiighhttt.
Non-traditional “holiday” songs. Songs which touch on everything about Christmas—but not Christmas itself.
Just a few of those things which truly do bug me. Truly.
Jesus is the Reason for the Season. Apart from Him we can do nothing. I love you, Lord.
