CHRISTMAS IS FORGIVING

Our Father who art in Heaven,

My name is Confusion
I am writing on behalf of myself and
others who hold this name
But who are afraid to confront you.
I hope you don’t mind that I ask you
some questions.
Yours is the only answer I need as I know
you would never mislead.

The Christmas season is fast approaching.
Amid the hustle, bustle, shopping sprees,
jingle bells and santa claus, I have
forgotten what it is truly about.
I know that Christmas is for giving, but
preparing for this day always leaves me
exhausted, in debt, and left with a feeling
that something dear has been lost.

Tell me Father, where is the reward in such
Christmas giving?
Is love measured by the size or expense of
the material fruits of mankind, or is there
something being greatly overlooked?

WAIT!!

“For giving” can also be ONE word, can it not?
And is not this day celebrated in honor of the
birth of Jesus? The very soul who’s life purpose
was to teach and show us how to bring forth
liberty from sin and redeem our souls through
the act of “forgiving”?

“Forgive our debts as we forgive our debtors”.

Of course!

It is the ultimate act of Grace!
A giving which comes straight from the heart,
holds no monetary value, yet brings forth an
“indebtedness” of a joyous nature!

Thank you Father for this invaluable insight!
There is no greater gift we can give than the gift
of forgiveness.
It is where true healing begins.

I shall pass this revelation on to the others in your
name, and encourage the form of giving required
to bring peace, love and eternal joy to all who practice it.

Now that I have received your answer,
I feel no need to send this letter.
You were listening as I was writing
now my name is Clarity.[/u]
