Reacting To. Christmas (The Rev, 4. Brown itemeanber old Scrooge to OicitOWS •famous 'Story? It was, the ,oetkolt of Cchrisq0401. Which clearly set out the kind of man be was • hard, selfish, unresponsive to kindness, and miserable In bUs dealings. with others; ;Even /,,he oheery greetings whieh carne his way drew forth only 0, disgusted mlitinibitgl" There are people today .for whom ciliriatrnae means little more, For the commercialist and materialist Chriatums is a time of trinkets and "things" ,1)411icili results. in increased sales. Religion at best, relegated to a secondary role, For the Communist Christmas has no meaning at all, since ihe, has no plaCe for God, or ,Ohniats So it 'is pushed aside as having no, relevance. Actually then, we are judged by our attitude to Christmas, Our reaction - to a neighbour:a "Merry 'Caltistraa.r, or to the call to "Conte, let us adore Him, ,Christ, the Lprd" is. an, indication of the lcia>d of people we are ti,nd of the thing Which, we consider important. Though our exact kind of work may be .different, many of .us find ourselveS somewhat like the shepherds of pid who beard the first 'Ohristniao message as they were "keeping watch over their flocks ,by night". They were the humble, litti6 people withotit munch lustre in the routine of •daily living, and of little or no, i., influence in the •pcilitA.ce of their nation, But they were represent- ative of the numberless people in every •nation- who 'were in reality she nations", I wonder if there would been. anything lacking in that first Christmas if they had not gone to worship in Beth- lehem, As it is, we are impressed away with the glad reception which these shepherds gave to the good news that God had visited His people, and that in Bethlehem they would see Him "wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a, manger". .•Censider what this could mean to our world if the comthon folk of - our day were to follow their example. Our-leaders talk of "Wars and surpluses and. plans. We, the "shepherdt", of our day, in very nation may point the way by a similar journey to -the imanger,ancl at- we gaze upon 'rte Prince of Peace a new hope might, born in our hearts which 'would send us out into the world to be peOPle of good Then think of the Wise Men. In la_.generation:which is becoming • accustomed to the talk of a space age with, satellites flitting over- head, what a. strangely modern story comes to us from the pages ' of God's 'Word. These men followed a star, and in our confused age. we too need .some star to guide us in our search for meaning and life. The Wise Men followed their .star t desplte the hardships of a, . • long journey and the danger ''af opposition. The star led them to Bethlehem .(m.eaning, House of Bread) where the hunger of their• souls was met and satisfied. But His star has not yet. set. The longing of the nations and. of folk like you and me for comfort and hope and life may still be found by following the pilgrim, read which ends at Bethlehem where we May present our gifts - - the gold of oiir talentS and abilities; the offering of the 'frankincense of our time, and the myrrh of the self-sacrifice of all, that we are and bave, - to Emmanuel], the God Who is amongst His people.
