Merry Christmas!!!

Today we celebrate the birth of God's proven grace and love: The birth of Jesus the Christ!

Thank you Father for caring enough to go through all this for us. Thank you for all the intimate plans and details You created to point us to the birth of Jesus before He was ever born. You, who laid the foundation of the earth as the morning stars sang (Job 38:6-7), also laid the foundation of salvation in our hearts through the Words you gave the prophets. 


Thank you Jesus for your love and willingness to suffer as one of us for our own sake amidst scorn and contempt. You showed us not only the Truth, but how to love one another; for we were child-like and clueless! You came in the most humble of circumstances to show us how to have little, though You are so very much (Philippians 4:12-13). 


Thank you Spirit for showing us how to have confident power in all humility. You, who are so close to us, have guided me so lovingly - even knowing who I am. You give me the words the Father has to encourage, strengthen, chastise, and confirm me.


Praise to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit on the celebration of the birth of our hope in salvation!!!
