The reason for the season
Hey, Everyone,
Another Thanksgiving season has come and gone and it's only a few weeks from my favorite holiday. But midst the hustle and bustle of this incredible season remember who this season is all about. One of my new songs says "This Is It", the life of living with Jesus that will never quit. Well, as we all know it began over 2000 years ago in a little town called Bethlehem when strangers arrived in town for the census and the baby king was born to Mary and Joseph. Awesome, it gives me goosebumps thinking about it.
Jesus is the reason for the season. I stood for 8 hours at the front door of our local Walmart and the Lord gave me the words of one of my latest Christmas songs. Below are the lyrics.
Jesus Is The Reason
C-105
David Erickson
Verse One
I'm not a Santa guy, nor do I dream of prancing reindeer.
But I do like the decorated tree and the memories are clear.
I know that Jesus is the reason and He is my only reason.
That I celebrate Christmas and He is the reason for the season.
Chorus
Jesus is the reason I celebrate in December.
I worship the king and He is the one I remember.
The Christmas season is an awesome winter retreat.
But the savior I will celebrate until one day we meet.
Verse Two
I sing the fa la las and dream of a white Christmas.
The kid's toys are cool and giving to others is a must.
Right now, I stop from the hustle of this season.
To honor Jesus who is the season's reason.
Bridge
There is always a reason for the season
His Name is Jesus the ultimate reason.
Thank you all for listening. Tell your friends and spread the joy of the season around.
We love you,
David and Jan
