The Greatest Gift EVER!

                                                      

For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder.  And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.   Isaiah 9:6 (NKJV). 

"Jesus is the reason for the season" seems to have become cliche, but it is absolutely true.  With just 5 days until Christmas day, those of us who are Believers should reflect our gratitude for the birth of the Savior in all our celebrations.  May we not allow the commercializtion of this season to overshadow our celebrating the best gift EVER!   JESUS! 

                                                                                   

 Lynn Cooper sang a song called Wise Men Still Seek Him.  The lyrics are awesome.                                 
                     (Chorus)
And wisemen still seek Him, they follow a star That leads them to Jesus as travelers a far. Men of great nations and the poor of the earth All join together to proclaim Christ's birth.

The following quote from Charles Dickens reads, "I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all year".  
AMEN!

Have a blessed time with family and friends.

  In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.                                                                                                   Genesis 1:1 , NKJV God has many "names"or "titles"that reflect His character and benefits. Today, I am focusing on Elohim, the God of Creation.  I was blessed to celebrate another birthday a couple of days ago, and my gift was to travel to another state with loved ones where the eclipse could be seen in its totality.  I saw the one locally in 2017, but that partial one paled by comparison to this one.    Photo by Mohamed Nohassi on Unsplash To say that it was awesome is such an understatement.  Visitors traveled from as far west as California, and there were some who were French speaking from who knows where.  I am seldom at a loss for words, however, this was an exception.  Seeing God's creation on full display as it went though the various phases was awe inspiring and caused me to tear up.  The change i

PASSION WEEK/HOLY WEEK

Image
No one can take my life from me.  I sacrifice it voluntarily.  For I have the authority to lay it down when I want to and also to take it up again.  For this is what my Father has commanded.  John 10:17-18 (NLT)    This season is one of the most consequential & unforgettable periods of time in Christiandom.  A painful time which ends triumphantly! Passion Week or Holy Week began on Palm Sunday and continues to Resurrection Sunday/Easter.   Jesus, motivated by His love for us and desire to redeem us, suffered unbelievable torture and humiliation to pay our sin debt.   He who was without sin. * It is called Passion Week because Jesus was motivated by His passionate love for us and desire to provide a path back to a restored relationship with the Father through Him.  The Father loves me because I sacrifice my life so I may take it back again. (John 10:17) .  He accomplished it through His suffering, death, and resurrection.  Those of us who are followers of Christ should always fe
