I wanted to send out Christmas greetings to everyone. Life tends to get out of control around Thanksgiving and usually lasts until Christmas with all the shopping, parties, baking, and stuff! But this year I've tried to take it all in stride and really enjoy the Christmas season. I've spent a lot of time reflecting upon things I'm thankful for and just the simple fact of how richly blessed I am. There are so many things that come to mind...too many to list. But most of all, I'm thankful for the most precious gift given to all mankind...A merciful & forgiving Saviour who loves unconditionally. He loves us when we're at our best or when we're at our worst. I know time is running out but during this Christmas season take time to reflect upon the birth of Jesus, His life, and the sacrifice He gave. A phrase that is commonly used this time of year comes to mind..."It is better to give than to receive". I have to say though, I'm so glad I was on the "receiving" end of that gift that was given to us all those years ago in that dirty old stable and then again a few years later on the cross. I hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Jesus is the Reason for the Season!
