Merry Christmas dearly loved one!
JESUS WAS OUR HEAVELY FATHER’S ULTIMATE GIFT TO MANKIND! Without Him, all of us would be doomed to an eternity separated from God. However, God loved the world so much that He gave JESUS to us. He came to die for our sins so we would not have to die and live apart from Him forever. It was the ULTIMATE sacrifice.
I know it can be easy to get all wrapped up in the receiving aspect of Christmas, with much of the focus being on what we can expect to get from someone else. But, what if every person, family, and community took on the attitude of servanthood and giving during the Christmas season? What if it became more about imitating what God did through giving JESUS than it was about what we can get from someone else? I believe if this shift of focus would begin to take place, people’s needs would be met, love would be released, and everyone would get blessed.
The BLESSING OF CHRISTMAS is so much bigger than a tree, shiny bows and ribbons, unwrapping presents, and getting everything on our wish list. IT REALLY IS ALL ABOUT JESUS! HE is the One Who deserves all the glory, honor, and praise for the awesome work He did on our behalf. He gave us the gift of salvation – something we did not earn or deserve.
God wants to bless you this Christmas, but in the midst of all that is going on around you, remember the reason for the season. JESUS IS GOD’S ULTIMATE GIFT!
Acts 20:35 says,
- …Remember the Words of the LORD JESUS, that He said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”
“Father I pray in the Jesus’ Name that my readers come to know You this Christmas in a way they never have known You before. I ask that You reveal Yourself to them so that they experience joy, life, health, and prosperity! We love You, Father, and thank You for giving us JESUS – YOUR ULTIMATE GIFT!“
Praising God for JESUS,
