BEGINNINGS AGAIN
BEGINNINGS AGAIN
CHRISTMAS IS A TIME TO GIVE AND RECEIVE
FELLOWSHIP AND FAMILY
In Christmas, giving of gifts and receiving is a part of the joy in all the giving.
Fellowship with our families is the biggest part of the time at Christmas.
In I John chapter 3. verses 1 and 2 tell us "Behold, what manner of love the
Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God:
therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not. Beloved,
now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be;
but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see
him as he is."
Again, in I John 5.1 The Bible tells us "Whosoever believeth
that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat
loveth him also that is begotten of him. "
This is my first blog post since my HIP OPERATION on March 18th, and I am happy
to be back to blogging again with you dear ones who will be reading my posts.
I pray that you have a Christ-filled Christmas and much pleasure in giving
and receiving of gifts.
In Jesus we have the privilege of receiving His Love and giving of that same love to others.
As we go through this Christmas, we need to be aware that New Year's Eve is just around the corner
and this is a time of BEGINNINGS AGAIN.
With the expectation of receiving a gift, we do not set it under the tree for it to
just be looked at, without opening it. With Jesus' who came as THE ETERNAL KING
to give his life for all who would believe, the Angel told Joseph "Thou shalt call
His name JESUS, for He shall save His people from their sins." Matthew 1.21
The best way to celebrate Christmas is to OPEN the G I F T of God's love, Jesus Christ
Him as my Lord and Savior. The fellowship with the LORD God through the Savior by
the Very Presence of the Holy Ghost (Spirit) in our lives is a precious treasure to
cherish and hold close.
As I look toward a New Year, I will look to BEGINNING AGAIN
with refreshed hope and renewed
trust in the Living God,
our One God who is manifested to us In Three Persons,
the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
May God give you His Presence in the days ahead.
Luke 1. 37 WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.
