Christ Has Come

The true season of Christmas.

32
Christ Has Come
Bob Rogers

I believe that we all know what Christmas is suppose to mean, but we often forget about the true meaning of Christmas.

Christmas is about Jesus being born! This time of year is when we worship and celebrate Jesus' birthday and when he was born in a manger when there was no room for Him in the inn. It is also about Christ bringing new life to the world! If it was not for Him, we would not have the option of accepting eternal life through Him!

This year, I have realized that Christmas is not just a holiday, it is a special time to worship Christ and for what all He has done for us in our lives! It is not just about the nativity part with Christ. It is about how Christ has come into the world to bring us joy, peace, patience, and kindness!

This season may be filled with presents, more food than usual, and other special activities that only happens during this time of the year, but it should also be filled with worship more than anything else that we do this holiday season! We should worship the Christ, the baby that was born for us to save the world, all of the time! Not just during Christmas time specifically.

I hope you realize the true meaning of Christmas and enjoy the presence of our Savior during Christmas! You may not get all the presents or a specific present, but you do not have to worry about that! Salvation is a priceless gift that we could never repay or ask for, but yet, He gives salvation to us! Salvation should be the best gift we should ever receive or ask for any time of the year!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
