“And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.” Luke 2:7 NKJV

“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:5 NIV

Merry Christmas! I do not wish to take much of your time this week. This week, this holiday, this birthday celebration is for family and friends and our Savior!

This week as you celebrate Christmas with your own traditions and special observances, take time to appreciate the everlasting, enduring love that God has for us. He sent His Son to be born into this dark world and to be sacrificed for you and me. God desires a personal relationship with each of us, through Jesus Christ, who left heaven and came to earth to invite every man and woman and child into His salvation.

So, enjoy your family and rejoice in the greatest gift ever given and received, Jesus Christ, our God with us and our Savior!

I thank God for each of you. And I thank you joining me during this special week as we rejoice and praise our God for His perfect gift!

Blessings for you and your families! And Merry Christmas!
