I love Christmastime! I love the sights, smells and especially the sounds. I love Christmas music from the sacred to the sappy. Yes, I am one of those who barely wait for leaves to start changing colors before I start playing Christmas music.
I used to lead worship and often wondered why we only sing carols at Christmas. In fact, I broke that unspoken rule a few times. As disciples of Jesus, we should celebrate His birth all year. The miracle of the incarnation is where it all began. God took on flesh to seek and save the lost. He lived to introduce us to the Father and died to reconcile us to Himself. That is worth remembering and celebrating all year. One of my carols is O Come Let Us Adore Him. The chorus says,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.
This time of year, we are called to adore Him at every turn. But let us never forget that He is worthy of our adoration all year!
