I try to avoid driving at night because I get headaches which lead to migraines, naturally. But, last night I did. And as I was driving, I saw a traffic light.
I started thinking about how cool the green and red lights blended together at night, and then I started thinking about Christmas of course and how the stoplight is like Christmas. So, there is red and green in the stoplight and red and green are also the colors of Christmas. Red means stop and green means go. And then it dawned on me the importance of the stoplight in relation to Christmas. It is a monumental holiday because it was when Jesus was born. His birth requires us to stop in reverence and praise. Like the shepherds, they stopped what they were doing in wonder of the star. But Christmas is also like the green light. Because Christ came, we are given the green light in our lives. Because He came, we have life and life to the full. Talk about an awesome stoplight in our lives.
That probably made no sense at all. But that's ok, it makes sense to me. I don't know where the yellow light comes into play yet, haven't quite thought that one over yet. But when I mull it over, I will get back to you.
Merry Christmas, far in advance!
