"Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us." Matthew 1:23(KJV)
Christmas.....what is the first thing that pops in your head? Presents, Santa, Lights, Christmas Trees, Shopping, Parties (the list could go on & on). Is Jesus the first thing you think of? Many of us no, not that we don`t love Jesus, but sometimes Christmas starts taking on a life of it's own.
God sent his ONLY Son to come live on this not so great earth and live with us AND then die for us. Crazy.....but usually that is God. So today while trying to wrap those last minute presents, while getting food ready for tomorrow, while rushing off the family to the church service tonight, stop & tell Jesus HAPPY BIRTHDAY! That little baby is the only reason we can go to Heaven. Don`t let things push Jesus aside, remember "He is the reason for the season!" Merry Christmas!!
P.S. And a Happy New Year!
