I am glad everyone has prayed about these things, that they have honestly searched their own hearts and come before the Lord to ask what HIS will is in this matter with no preconceived answers. That is truly what matters most. It breaks my heart to say that I have family members who never have asked the Lord what HIS will for their life is when it comes to taking part in some of the traditions that they are accustomed to. They just grew up as children in church family, in church settings, where celebrating Christmas was always the thing you did so they never stopped to ask the LORD what HIS heart on the matter was. I wish you who have taken part in this thread the very best.
God uses everything!! Amen Pilgrim! even a Donkey, can I get another Amen?

Want to have a Joy filled Christmas? align your personal celebration with Gods will for you, want to have a bad Christmas? align your personal celebration with man. Simple, cut and dry, and about as close to the point I can get.
