For our secular culture, Christmas time is about gift giving, gathering with family, Santa Claus, candy canes, and gingerbread houses. And while these are fun gifts to be enjoyed, we as Christians are called to reflect on the true meaning of Christmas.
This is the time of year when we reflect on God Himself becoming a man– entering the world as a baby (Luke 2:7; John 1:14-18). Yet, we often stop the story there– when Jesus is a baby.
We often forget that baby Jesus would eventually carry a cross to Calvary and shed His blood to set His people free from the curse of sin and death. Hebrews 9:12 (ESV) states,
“he [Jesus]entered once for all into the holy places, not by means of the blood of goats and calves but by means of his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.”
Truly, the greatest Christmas gift for the Christian is reflecting on the amazing sacrifice of our Savior, Jesus Christ, Who purchased our eternal redemption.
Our culture sadly dismisses Christianity throughout the year, but it seems even more obvious at Christmas time when the reason for our celebration is rooted in Christ himself.
Holy Pals is a company with a deep longing for families to keep Christ at the center of Christmas.
“When we started Holy Pals, we wanted to design products that give children the opportunity to draw near to Christ and to help parents teach their children about their faith.”
This is why they launched their Christmas family matching pajama sets. Rather than sporting candy canes or Santa Claus, they share the story of Christmas in the patterns they produce.
Featuring beautiful patterns such as “Away in a Manger,” “Prince of Peace,” “Sweet Baby Jesus,” “Glory to God,” and more, your family can share the true meaning of Christmas simply by wearing comfortable pajamas.
This Christmas, remind yourself and your family of the true meaning of Christmas with matching Holy Pals Pajamas!
