BAH...HUMBUG - ANYWAY

Submitted by: Pastor Rankin McGougan, New Life Assembly

eorge Bernard Shaw had a rather cynical
‘ex pessimistic view of the Christmas
season. He is quoted as having said that:
“Christmas is forced on us by the shopkeepers and the
press, if left to it’s own it would wither and die in the
fiery breath of universal hatred!” Well Mr. Shaw I
gladly take opposition to your thesis. This mid-winter
celebrations existed for millenniums without the aid
of the media and/or the merchants. Left to its own it
may move in a drastically different direction that
would probably be warmly welcomed.

Now, I don’t mean to be too hard on dear old Mr.
Shaw, but it takes very little creative effort to be
negative and cynical about anything and that
cynicism will drain you dry Of any every ounce (or
30g if you prefer) of energy for real life. Now I am
fully aware that our Christmas season provides us
with all the encouragement we need to climb on the
“BAH...HUMBUG BAND WAGON”.

After all we can expend a lot of energy becoming
exasperated over the inroads of secularism, or ranting
& raving over the glutenous feasting and the
consumption of alcohol, or complaining bitterly about
the schedules we have to keep or mustering up our
righteous indignation over inappropriateness and
excess. If that doesn’t work for us we can always join
the ranks of the religious zealots and avoid all
association with Christmas by sitting in our ivory
tower and brooding ‘till we’re blue in the face about
the theological ramifications of how a venerated
monk from Licia evolved into an over weigh elf. Or
how about frustrating ourselves over the inequities
between the have’s and the have not’s or tormenting
ourselves over memories of painful Christmases.

Rev. V, Tech + 365-3664
ALL WELCOME!

Now I am not going to condone the disasters of the
season. But, if we are not careful we will become so
focused on them that’ within a few minutes with very
little effort we can b this derful
that would make Ebeneezer Scrooge look like.
Mother Teresa Mr. Grinch look like the original St.
Nicholas. Oh, and by the way a spin off benefit of
becoming this wonderfully pious pickle is that
anyone who comes in contact with us becomes a
high risk candidate for contagious misery. But hold
on a minute, I need to change directions myself
because I’m falling into the same subtle trap by
griping about the gripers.

Now, the Romans may have used this mid winter
festival to celebrate the victory of light over darkness
but I don’t blame the early church fathers for
choosing a day in the middle of this pagen season to
use it to celebrate that the true light of the world had
come and that true victory over darkness is found in
God’s gift of His Son Jesus. He is still the good news
of great joy that was proclaimed by the hosts of
heaven and because of that good news we have all the
reason in the world to celebrate. He is God with us,
He is the Christ, He is the Lord. He is our Saviour it
is of Him that we sing, celebrate and fellowship.

So don’t stand in line for the Bah-Humbug Bus, set
your mind on things above and focus on the God’s
gift of grace that was left for us 2000 years ago. Some
have failed to claim this gift as their own. Some have
carried it around but have failed to unwrap it and
receive it’s glories. Some have opened it up and have
left it under the tree. Some have taken it unto
themselves and it has become a part of them. The
Choice is yours Humbug or Hallelujah.
