And so it has come…
Whether you have a large Christmas tree, a small one, or none at all, Christmas has still come.
Whether you have heaps of gifts, just a few gifts, or none at all to unwrap, Christmas has still come.
Whether you are filled with joy, or alone and grieving, Christmas has still come.
The best gift needed no tree, but died on one so you can receive the gift of eternal life with Him.
He simply loved you that much! It had nothing to do with who you were or where you were from, whether you were rich or poor, educated or illiterate.
On this day we celebrate the birth of Jesus!
He brings you the gift of new life in Him, with Him. He wants to dwell in your heart and walk with you through life’s ups and downs. All He asks is that you open your heart and receive Him.
When you are given a gift, your part is to open and receive it.
I have so much enjoyed sharing His story, the Christmas story, with you these last few weeks. I pray the Lord allowed you to sense Him in a special way through the retelling of the story.
Merry Christmas! Shalom!
I hope you’ve had a lovely Christmas, and I wish you all the best for 2017. Thank you for joining The Really Crafty Link Party this week.
Our big tree has set in it’s box for several years. Two small trees have taken its place and they stay up all year. We are not in need and our wants are small or not at all. YET Christmas Joy is ours and we understand the true meaning of Jesus and His birth and all that He accomplished for us. Thank you for sharing with us here at Tell me a Story.
I think as we get older, our wants are fewer and our focus is more centered on what is most precious! Blessings on you as 2016 draws to a close.
Hope you had a marvelous Christmas and a blessed new year ahead! “When you are given a gift, your part is to open and receive it.” Amen.
Beautiful! He is Christmas and the only gift we need. Many blessings to you and yours, Pam.
