It has been obvious to Ann and I this season that it is "okay" once again for clerks and others to say "Merry Christmas" instead of "Happy Holidays", that was being pushed so hard the last several years. If that isn't so where you live then I am sorry. It is quite evident down here in South Texas.
And why not? It IS the Christmas season. It is when the world pauses to remember this event, whether they believe it or not. It is a critical time for most businesses. If Christmas sales go sour their whole year is bad. Well, it seems that sales are up! Hope that registers on these not-so-happy holiday folks.
All of this is far from capturing the real meaning of the season. We celebrate the birth of the Savior who came from His Father in Glory. Without His coming there would be no happy holidays.
He came! He will come again! Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas!!!!!!!
