Christmas can be a difficult, lonely and painful time for many. There are those who have lost loved ones, those who have never known true love, and those who have neither heat nor shelter to keep them warm, nor food to keep them nourished. There are others who are rushing around in a frenzied state, shopping for last minute gifts and dealing with the hustle and bustle of crowded malls.
We wanted to share the gift of JESUS CHRIST with you today. CHRISTmas is not only about JESUS' birth, but it is about what His birth signifies. JESUS is:
"...a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of your people Israel." Luke 2:32
"Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Isaiah 9:6
"Immanuel (which means 'God with us')." Matthew 1:23
"The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!" John 1:29
If we take some time out, silence all the other voices around us and listen, we will hear Him saying:
“Behold, I make all things new.” Revelations 21:5
"For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost." Luke 19:10
"I am the way and the truth and the life." John 14:6
"I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." John 10:10
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” Luke 4:18-19
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU AND MAY YOU EXPERIENCE THE JOY OF JESUS THIS CHRISTMAS SEASON!!
