Unthankful Christmas




As I am listening to Christmas music and wrapping some gifts when I got a little annoyed at how unthankful some people can be....or at least seem to be. How even though in today's society with phones, Facebook, emails & Skype you never hear a simple "Thanks".....

But then I thought about how God sent his only Son, the best gift he could give to the world, let him grow up and  
DIE for YOU & me.

And you know....he does not even get a "Thanks".....and with God you don't even need the excuse of a phone or internet to say Thank you.

I said thank you and  accepted that gift [Jesus Christ] 18 years ago....it is the most precious thing I got and I am thankful I am not on my way to hell anymore.


When did you accept Christ's gift?

  1. Hi Iris! I came upon your fashion and personal blogs a few months ago, and I've enjoyed them tremendously! I was thinking about Jesus' gift of salvation a few days ago and I thought, "The very fact that He died for me on the cross is reason enough to be joyful every day of our lives!" I was saved as a little girl when my mother asked if I wanted to give my heart to Jesus. I truly do love Jesus! He is so wonderful!

    Do you live overseas? I believe you mentioned that you lived in Germany on your blog. I live in Colorado Springs, Colorado. What is the weather like in your neck of the woods? Here it is getting cold again after a week of weather in the fifties/sixties.

    God bless and Merry Christmas!
