So why do we celebrate Christmas ๐ŸŽ„ anyway?

Alot of Christmas songs said that Jesus was born on Christmas day but I don't think that really happened In the bible as I've read the Bible

You are absolutely right. I believe the chosen Christmas day, is more of a convenience for those all over the world who love and follow the Lord and His Word, as a set date to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ, believed to be the Son of God. The holiday is a time to reflect on Jesus's arrival as a gift of salvation and to remember his teachings of love and goodwill. The name "Christmas" itself is derived from "Christ's Mass," a service celebrating the birth of Christ.

I sometimes think people put too much emphasis, and get hung up and even stressed out over the date that Christmas falls on, but the emphasis should be on the hope that Christ brought to the world by experiencing salvation through him and eternal life in heaven.

The central reason for the celebration is the birth of Jesus, marking the beginning of God's plan to reconcile humanity with him.

Jesus's birth is a reminder of God's immense love for the world and the gift of salvation he offered through his son.

The season is also a time for spiritual reflection on the core tenets of the Christian faith, including the hope, joy, and peace that Jesus' coming represents. It inspires traditions of giving, kindness, and peace, encouraging people to be more caring and selfless toward others.
