She was feeling what so many
of us feel during the holiday
season time of the year.
Overwhelming pressure to go to
every party, every
housewarming, taste all the holiday foods
and treats, getting that
perfect gift for every single person
on our shopping list, making
sure we don't forget anyone on
our card list, and the
pressure of making sure we respond to
everyone who sent us a card.
Finally the elevator doors
open and there was already a
crowd in the car. She pushed
her way into the car and
dragged her two kids in with
her and all the bags of stuff.
When the doors closed she
couldn't take it anymore and
stated, "Whoever started this
whole Christmas thing
should be found, strung up and
shot."
From the back of the car
everyone heard a quiet, calm,
voice respond, "Don't worry,
we already crucified Him.
For the rest of the trip down
the elevator, it was so quiet
you could hear a pin drop.
Don't forget this year to
keep the one who started this
whole Christmas thing
in your every thought, deed,
purchase and word.
If we all did it, just think
how different this world would
be.
