A child is born, a Son is given

Well, it has been some year. From a whirling economy , to a locked down hurting nation. My self, I have watched , studied, prayed and hoped for a Christmas that would allow all humans to embrace , bid peace to each and continue to lift the value of Life, but all seems to have lost its way. I get to state "I lived through the pandemic of 2020". My family and church family are well . Having an older group to fellowship with, a few have stayed in their homes for health reasons. Now Christmas is here. We set aside this day to celebrate the Birth of our Lord and King in flesh. Lacking is the gathering of families to share, laugh, eat and sing and give of ourselves in gift. Jesus is just the perfect gift to get. To give ourselves and our debt of sin to Him seems an uneven exchange for the bounty He returns in fellowship. It is going to be a white Christmas here and a dark winter if we do not let the light of hope fill our hearts. Consider the child that was born into our reality. Are you willing to take Him into your arms? Are you willing to let Him wrap you in His love? Jesus is the Prince of Peace. See any place today that needs that ? Do you need His peace , comfort, support and love? He had recorded His words that all who will call on His name and believe what He said about Himself and us , is true. He is only a heart felt declaration away. Even if this has been a heart break of a year, you can still have a Very Merry Celebration of Christmas. Unto us a Son is given.
