The Gift of Giving

Matthew 2:11 tells us that when wise men came to see the baby Jesus, they bowed down and worshipped Him. They also presented Him with gifts. There are many gifts that we can give to Jesus today. We give gifts to Jesus every time we share the good news of salvation with someone; every time we let the love of God flow through us and forgive someone who has hurt us. Our lives honor our heavenly Father when we obey His Word and keep His commandments. God loves you and He wants to bless you. Show God how much you love Him by giving to others your time, your talent and your friendship. Merry Christmas and may 2012 be the happiest New Year you have ever had.

God's Gift to You

The holiday season seems to create a sense of pressure of its very own.  You might be feeling a little weary because you may not be able to do all that you want to do for everyone in your life?  Galatians 6:9 tells us not to be weary in doing what is right because in due season we will reap if we don’t give up.  I believe in miracles.  The birth of Jesus Christ was a miracle.  Mary received a promise from God at a time in her life when it looked impossible but she held on to that promise and we must do the same.  Don’t give up on God or his promises to you.  Be strong, unshakeable.  God’s grace is sufficient and it will carry you through the tough times that will surely come to steal your peace and joy.  Believe God for the miraculous.  God has a plan for your life and no mater what your current circumstances look like, joy will come in the morning  because nothing is impossible with God.  God loves you.  Keep your eyes upon him and enjoy his gift to you – his Son, Jesus Christ – the real reason for this season.
