Have a JOYFUL Christmas to all ...

JOY comes by putting Jesus first, Others second, and Yourself last.

Everyone wants to enjoy life. Many people place the source of their joy in what they own, in their reputation, in their status, or in other worldly things. Yet, all of those things are unstable and can easily evaporate, taking joy with them. In the end, we… Continue

RAMBLING: JOY TO THE WORLD

As the Christ child lay contently asleep in the feeding manager and as shepherds gathered around to gaze in wonder upon this child sent by God and announced by angels. How appropriate that shepherds and their sheep gathered around this Wonder that lay wrapped in his swaddling cloths for this innocent and divine Child would become the Shepherd of shepherds seeking His sheep in life's wilderness. Many would respond to His call and follow Him as He led them to the waters of eternal life, to feed… Continue

The Wonder of Christmas

But Mary kept all these things and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:19

Merry Christmas! Today is most likely a busy day for you. There are meals to cook, guests to welcome, places to go, people to see, gifts to unwrap, and possibly, even a few gifts to be wrapped! This holy day can certainly be hectic for all of us.

Maybe your Christmas is just getting started. Or perhaps, the holiday is drawing to a close. Whatever the case, this is a moment of… Continue

Christmas: Call His Name Jesus—At the Name of Jesus

"For He will save His people from their sins”

Our New Testament opens with the glorious advent of Christ the Promised One; God the Son came to Earth to save sinners.

Christmas is really has one theme and one central message—Jesus came to save people from their sins. That is the way He is introduced to us; those are the first words recorded about Jesus in the New Testament.

Christmas as the Matthew… Continue

Love visits Hate

Yes that is true, so many of us let hate fill our lives and let history been in the present time that you can't figure out where are you exactly.

I was as young child been molested by a uncle of mine, and I "hate" him for that, and I find it out when I was been treated for stress after a nervous breakdown, which I thought was my husband who put me there.

Yes my husband had lots of affairs and I was always feeling out, like "he didn't love me" or "why should he love me"… Continue

The True Meaning of Christmas

Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel. Isaiah 7:14

When Jesus was born, only a few people realized He was more than a typical infant. The same is true today. Many people attend Christmas Eve services and observe holiday traditions but fail to consider three important questions:

Was Jesus really God?

Why did He come to earth?

What does this have to do… Continue

How do we celebrate Christmas? Are you seeking God's presence or His presents?

To Christians, Christmas and Easter are the two most important days of the year. One commemorates the birth of Christ; the other remembers His death and resurrection. In order to honor the meaning of Christmas, many Christians decorate with Nativity scenes.

Every year in December we celebrate the birthday of Jesus Christ. That is why we call this time of year 'Christmas' - we celebrate the 'Mass', or church service, for Christ. The word Christmas (or Christ's Mass) comes from the Old… Continue

Christmas Eve Greetings

Luke 2.10 ~ I bring you good tidings of great joy. . . today. . . a Savior!!

Christmas Greetings to you, dear friend~

I bring you good tidings of great joy this morning, from Jesus--

Dear child, maybe now that your preparations are through, you can make some quiet to be with me. You will have to take the time, it won't just happen. Just as the townspeople of Bethlehem missed my birth all those years ago, it would be easy for you to go through Christmas, and miss me,… Continue

The Spirit of Whoredoms

This spirit comes in when we commit idolatry. Yes, us. We may call ourselves Christians but we still sin and commit idolatry. The Israelites knew the Lord and sinned by idolatry (so many examples but one: 2 Chronicles 25:18). They are a shadow of us. We are doing the same thing. You may think you don’t bow down to an idol, but can you live without your boyfriend? Mmm. Can you give up your Bentley? Mmm. Can you let go your dream to get that PhD, you’ve wished for since you were 9 in the jungle… Continue

HAVE YOU OPENED YOUR GIFTS YET................

Jesus is the greatest person who has ever lived; each year we celebrate His Birth as the coming of our salvation.

Salvation is the greatest gift of all.

Salvation is the only gift that everyone really needs.

Salvation is presented to us as the ultimate Christmas gift in what is perhaps the best known verse of the Bible. Why not say that verse with me, it is John 3:16.

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that He gave His only… Continue

SOME OF US WEREN'T BORN TO LOVING FATHERS....WE STILL HAVE ONE THAT LOVES US....

SOME OF US WEREN'T BORN TO LOVING FATHERS...WE STILL HAVE ONE THAT LOVES US

Loving Father

Proverbs 4:1-10

Some people grow up in families where wisdom is modeled and taught by their parents. They have the privilege of receiving wise advice at home. Many of us grew up in families that were crazy. Our parents didn't provide wise guidance for us. This deprivation can leave us wondering how we can fill up the void of what we missed. We may feel like the rest of the human… Continue

Wise men seek him

WISE MEN SEEK HIM

After the angels proclaimed to the shepherds, ‘good news of great joy which was for all the people,’ the shepherds gathered their robes and hurried to the babe. Later, the Magi braved deserts and mountains to find him, bringing gifts. While we do not know how many wise men there were, we do know they brought three gifts . . . highly significant and symbolic gifts.

Gold. Frankincense. Myrrh. ‘With the exception of gold, the three gifts the Wise Men brought… Continue

What bring me to my knees?

That is a very simple question someone would say, but if you think about it for a moment, you read some of the friends profiles, maybe some of the friends bloggs, and then you realise that all of them included me was going through a difficult time and you can hide it like in one movie play "Hide and Seek" about it, but while you read and saw the other person to whom they all chatting are seriously looking for a answer and just one day, if you go to your knees and seriously speak to God you'll… Continue
