🎄 Merry Christmas… or Merry Xmas? 🎄

Have you ever stopped to wonder what “Xmas” really means? 🤔 Many people think it’s a way of erasing Christ from His own birthday—but the truth might surprise you.

The “X” isn’t random. In Greek, the first letter of Christ’s name is Chi (Χ) — and early Christians used it as a sacred abbreviation for Christos. ✝️ For centuries, believers used “Xmas” to honor Jesus, not to remove Him.

So here’s the heart check: it’s not the letters on a card or sign that matter—it’s the heart behind them. 💛 Whether you say “Merry Christmas” or “Merry Xmas,” the real question is: does your life reflect the reason for the season?

✨ This week’s encouragement: Let your words, actions, and heart shout:

• Jesus is Lord 🕊️

• Grace has come 🎁

• Hope is here 🌟

Use this season as a chance to remind yourself and others: it’s not about tradition, marketing, or even letters—it’s about the Gift God gave us in Christ. 💌

So, as you greet friends, family, or even strangers this week: let your heart show the true meaning of Christmas. Live it, give it, share it. ❤️

Drop a comment below: “Christ is the Gift!” if you’re celebrating Him this season, no matter how you spell it. 🙌
