Sports on JC's Birthday...
I know I'm a hypocrite when I say this, I just wish we could have one day a year where we have some reflection on what's important in life. I know we do by getting together with family and all, it just irritates me that we can't take Jesus's birthday off from something we can enjoy the other 364 days of the year. Another installment of "Christmas Under Siege" if you ask me. Now I know not everybody celebrates Christmas, and have a different belief system than me. In that respect, I can understand the NBA and NFL's decision to play games on this day. I guess this is just more of a wish on my part that for one day we as Christians forget about distractions like this and remember there are things more important than sports. I know I'm probably overreacting to this, it just really bothered me to hear that some churches are moving services around to accomodate the Vikings-Packers game Friday night, I'm sure the same thing will happen in the towns playing on Christmas day. It's not the right priorities, in my opinion.

Found your blog by random peek. I agree with you. Just one day away from all distractions to celebrate an important event. Guess the best we can all do as Christians is live each day all year with thankful hearts.
