The Something Special in the Christmas Tree

We were putting up our Christmas tree just recently, with it being Christmas time, it just seemed like the thing to do.

As we were putting the Christmas tree up, my wife said to me,
“Do you realise that the bare Christmas tree is just like us before we ask Jesus into our lives. It’s missing something. When we ask Jesus into our lives we then take on something special. It’s like the decorations make us that much better.”

I do fully agree with that idea.

We do have two ways to live.
With or without Jesus.

I do think that all those who choose to live without Jesus are like the bare Christmas tree.
Just missing something.

Where as those who have asked Jesus into their lives have clothed themselves with that something special and as such, now appear to be as the decorated Christmas tree.

So which tree do you look like?

Do you have Jesus with you, or not.

If you haven’t asked Jesus into your life yet, then this Christmas as you enjoy your Christmas and the decorations on the tree then consider asking Jesus into your life.
Then you too could have that something special about you as well.

Jesus,
Thank you that you came into the world.
Thank you that you came to show us the way to know you personally.
Thank you that if we ask you into our lives, then you do say yes to us, and you do then make us that much better.
Help us all to say yes to you that much more, so that we can all be that much more special.
Amen.
