Jesus is Better than Santa

Here is a little article that I found, oddly enough, in a Christian joke book, but I thought it was pretty cool. Thus the reason I’m posting it here, hope you enjoy it.


“Santa lives at the North Pole; Jesus is everywhere. Santa rides in a sleigh; Jesus rides on the wind and walks on water. Santa comes but once a year; Jesus is an ever present help. Santa comes down your chimney uninvited; Jesus stands at your door and knocks. Santa makes you stand in line to see him; Jesus is as close as the mention of His name. Santa lets you sit on his lap; Jesus lets you rest in His arms. Santa asks, “Little boy, little girl, what is your name?” Jesus knew our names before we did. Santa has a belly like a bowl full of jelly; Jesus has a heart full of love. Santa offers “Ho, ho, ho”; Jesus offers health, help, and hope. Santa says “You better not cry”; Jesus says, “Cast all your cares on me for I care for you.” Santa's little helpers make toys; Jesus makes new lives, mends hearts, repairs broken homes. Santa may make you chuckle; Jesus gives you joy. Santa puts gifts under your tree; Jesus became our gift and died on a tree. There's really no comparison. Jesus is the reason for the season.”
