In just a few days we will be celebrating the Birth of
the Savior, Jesus Christ. During that first Christmas the shepherds were
fortunate to experience the birth of someone who would go onto change the
world: Jesus Christ.
As we approach the actual day of Christmas, the birth
of the Lord provides us with knowledge that God is not afraid to share our
struggles, in good times and bad times. He is always present to us in all our
needs.
During this Christmas season let us always turn to God
in all our needs. He may not answer in a way that we like but in a way we need.
Further, let us pray for all those who may be lonely this time of year and have
no one to spend time with.
Merry Christmas.

ReplyDeleteAMEN. BLESSED & MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!
The words from the first chapter of St. John's GOSPEL: "The Word was made flesh & dwelt among us" has been interpreted by some as literally saying that He "pitched His tent among us". That is how close Our LORD came to us in taking on our humanity & living among us.
I come to the LORD about EVERYTHING, both big & small. I agree with the saying: "Work as if everything depended upon you. Pray as if everything depended upon GOD".I don't even want to imagine what I would do or what my life would be like if I didn't have the LORD in my life to turn to & depend upon!
