The Perfect Christmas Gift

“Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit. And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned to send her away secretly. But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.” Now all this took place to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet: “Behold, the virgin shall be with child and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which translated means, “God with us.” And Joseph awoke from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife, but kept her a virgin until she gave birth to a Son; and he called His name Jesus.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭1‬:‭18‬-‭25‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬

He’ll take care of the rest!

See a fun song from the past, by Keith Green

My question for us today, is what will we do today for someone, because of the tremendous blessings we have been given, in Christ Jesus? I know my wife and I have several things in mind. May we freely give, as we have been given today.

May we give wisely and generously this season, that your harvest might grow exponentially, for your Glory and not our own.

A lesson to Martha on Eternal life, regarding. her brother, Lazarus.

Father, please remind us that we have eternal life now, when we received your gift of salvation. Help us to live life now, as having received that gift.

Taken from the John MacArthur study Bible

With this statement, Jesus moved Martha from an abstract belief in the resurrection that will take place “on the last day” (cf. 5:28 , 29 ) to a personalized trust in Him who alone can raise the dead. No resurrection or eternal life exists outside of the Son of God. Time (“on the last day”) is no barrier to the One who has the power of resurrection and life ( 1:4 ) for He can give life at any time.

How wonderful to know that the God who created and has given us everything, just wants a grateful heart that gives back to him, what he has already given to us. How generous should we be to him and others, since God has freely given to us. May we all be changed by this verse everyday as we are reminded of this.

Peace to you and your family, today.

Our Hope, is in you Lord! There is no other God besides you. You give access to yourself through Jesus, through his death and resurrection, that took away the weigh of our own wicked hearts, through his sacrifice. This is good news to those through all those striving to earn their access to you. You give it freely, to all who believe. Won’t you consider this wonderful gift of life today, if you have not yet. That would be my prayer, both for you and your family. May the Peace of God through his Holy Spirit, fill you today!

This is truly, the good news of the Gospel. This is truly the most wonderful gift ever given to man. It’s only a gift though, if you accept it.

We are set free from the slavery of sin. This is not because we are so good, but because Jesus was so good. Jesus stands ready to rescue all who reach out and take his free gift of that life vest that will save your life.

Our wage, for going our own way, is eternal death, and separation from God. When we turn to Jesus in Faith, who gave his life for our rescue, we are forgiven from destruction, and given the gift of life, both now and for all eternity. Thank you Jesus!
