Kids and Christmas..... Hmmmmm.....

How do we keep the little ones from being too spoiled? Their fancy little minds that they've mustered up through dreaming somehow, but their fancy minds might sometimes have to deal with the amount of toys and high-priced items which are cleverly advertised not on TV but also online. So kids see! Some may be in tune with knowing that Jesus is the reason for the season. This is the time that his beloved followers celebrate his birth. So kids should know that that is the number one rule about Christmas for anyone. Giving gifts is great. But let's teach kids to be thankful. Let's pray more. Let's celebrate with family. Let's reverence Jesus as we open Holiday goodies and presents. 

Say farewell to gluttony as an early New Year's Resolution. Dance in between meals. Teach kids to stay active. Some children can't handle those 'turkey lag feelings' which many have succumbed to for several decades.

Studies indicate that many eat significantly more during the Holidays. It's a fabulous time to thank God for togetherness and that Holiday 'Magical feeling.' But God isn't magic. Christians know that Jesus was born as God through Mary and we are celebrating the birth of our real God who defeats those magical demons who try to persuade the world and in particular children; that the Holidays are all about Christmas Trees, food only and accepting gifts every other hour. Yes, giving is great. Be thankful for those gifts. But let us raise up another generation who keeps JESUS FIRST. He is the reason. He is our life. He grew from a handsome baby boy to a God of Gods. We feel and love him in our hearts. We love the 'beauty of Holiness' as God depicted.
 
Let us teach kids to give. Open the door for elders. Help pick up trash. Let us make our Father who art in heaven content. Bless you. Tell a child about new videos coming from DiscipleforCHRIST.org. LOVE YOU from Jason Brye!
