In the United States, it is all about Status. What you have. What you wear. Where you live.
Black Friday started years ago. The day after Thanksgiving, stores opened like four in the morning for sales that started the Christmas shopping season.
Now it starts Thursday afternoon, the day of Thanksgivng.
So first Americans stuff themselves with food, Gluttony. Then Americans will go shopping with money they don't have. They will charge items, thinking they are getting a good deal.
No one thinks about the employees that have to leave their family on Thanksgiving to work, for people to spend money.
GREED. GREED for the CEO's of the company. Greed for customers who think they have to buy things for Christmas to impress others.
Shopping for Christmas gifts is for the buyer. They want to impress whoever they are giving the gift to.
The Birth of Jesus has nothing to do with Black Friday or even gift giving.
People go into debt. Exactly what Satan wants you to do.
Are you living in the flesh? Why are you out spending money you don't have?
What does that have to do with the Birth of Jesus?
Think about this, before you run out, because it is black Friday, that starts on Thursday now.
Christmas has gotten so commerized, that Christ has been taken out of Happy Holidays.
GREED, Businesses want your money. Commericals are already on TV. It is all about the gifts, the parties and the food and nothing about Jesus.
What are you doing this Christmas Season? Are you going to get all stressed out to impress your family and want to impress your friends? OR Are you going to look to Jesus and thank GOD for Jesus. The reason their is Christmas.
People are more worried about buying gifts than Jesus.
People are more worried about impressing others, that remembering that Jesus was Born.
People have taken Jesus out of Christmas.
What are you going to do this Christmas?
Christmas is all about Jesus.
