Rob- EVERYDAY , COUNSELOR By Bishop Herbert Spaagh TEN COMMANDMENTS FOB CHRISTMAS 1. THOU SHALT NOT LEAVE CHRIST OUT OF CHRISTMAS, making it “Xmas,” for this is the sign that thou are lazy-mind ed, and spiritually listless. To most minds, “X” stands not for Christ, but for the algebraic un. known. H. THOU SHALT NOT VALUE THY GIFTS BY THEIR COST, for verily many shall signify love that is more blessed and beautiful than silver and gold. IU. THOU SHALT GIVE THY SELF WITH THY GIFTS. Thy love, thy personality and thy service shall increase the value of thy gift an hundred fold and he that receiveth it shall treasure it forever. IV. THOU SHALT NOT LET SANTA CLAUS TAKE THE PLACE OF CHRIST. In many homes Santa Claus supersedes the Christ Child and Christmas becomes a fairy tale rather than a sublime reality in the spiritual realm. V. THOU SHALT NOT BUR DEN THY SERVANT. The shop girt, the mail carrier, and the merchant should have thy con sideration. VI. THOU SHALT NOT NEG LECT THY CHURCH. Its Christ mas services are planned to help spiritualize the Christmas season for thee, thy child, and thy household. The church repre sents Christ, the only true de fense against the rising evil of Commuism. VII. THOU SHALT NOT NEG LECT THE NEEDY. Let thy bountiful blessings be shared with the many who will go hun gry and shiver with cold unless thou art generous in their time of want. VIII. THOU SHALT BE AS A LITTLE CHILD. Christmas is the day of the Christ Child. Not until thou hast become in spirit even as a little child art thou ready to enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. IX. THOU SHALT PREPARE THY SOUL FOR CHRISTMAS. For verily most of us spend much time and money getting gifts ready, but few seconds in preparing our souls. X. THOU SHALT GIVE THY HEART TO CHRIST. Let thy Christmas list have Christ at the top and thy heart as the gift. For in so doing thou art as the Wise Men of old, and verily thou shalt find thyself born again on Christmas Day.
