Don't have a Santa Clause relationship with Jesus

Santa Clause vs Jesus Christ. An age old battle. It’s been going on ever since Jolly Old Saint Nick dawned his red velvet suit and funny hat and started handing out presents to kids and jumping down chimneys. I think the coolest difference between these two "people" is the fact that Santa keeps a list of everything you've done wrong, but Jesus forgets your sins the moment you repent (isaiah 43:25). Jesus and Santa are clearly different. But a lot of times we treat them the same way. We send Santa a letter once a year telling him what we want. A new iPod, peace on Earth, whatever. A lot of times our relationship with Jesus is very similar. Whenever we want or need something we remember Jesus and decide it’s time to pray. Don’t get me wrong, Jesus definitely cares about what your wants and your needs, but He isn’t satisfied with that shallow of a relationship. He wants something deeper. Podcast Audio
