I am sitting here in silence right now. No kids, no husband just watching the snow flakes falling, drinking my coffee,wrapped in a blanket, sitting on a heating pad for my ailing tail bone, thinking God is Great! He has provided us with so much that i don't deserve. A loving Husband and 3 loving Children . Which can easily be forgotten sometimes, when life is hectic and full of chaos. He has also provided for us great Family and friends. Plus all the necessities we need. So as i sit here thinking how awesome He is i just cant believe all that He has given to me, but yet he sent his son to be born in a manger. A manger!! How many of us would want to give birth in a barn. I for one am glad that God gave the gift of architecture to those to build hospitals and medical knowledge to those who are doctors. Because Mary and Joseph were on there own in a barn, surrounded by animals. Not up to date medical equipment and doctors and nurses. He sent his son to be born in that situation, so that later on he could die for me and my families sins. Wow!!
So this season as we gather around with Family and friends, let us just keep in mind the real reason we celebrate Christmas. It's not the gifts or food or gathering with one another, it's because God loves us and sent his son to be born for ALL of us!! So let's just remember why we have CHRISTmas. The TRUE meaning.
Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born
to us a son is given
and the government will be on his
shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
For the true meaning of Christmas read Luke 2.
Merry Christmas everyone!!
