This is the time of the year when we celebrate the birth of Jesus. Yes, there are some that will argue it is not his birth date, it is too commercialized, too much Santa Claus and gifts. All these are most likely true, however, we need to keep in mind what we are celebrating. This is about JESUS, and our arguments about when his birthday really is should not be part of the discussion.
Yes, if you research the birth of Christ it was more likely to have been in the spring time, but we celebrate it now. We celebrate Veterans Day the Monday closest to Nov. 11th, yet we celebrate. We celebrate MLK Jr. Day the 15 of Jan in 2018, the 21st in 2019, and so on, yet we hear not arguments about this. SOOO, let us go into this season enjoying the fact that JESUS CHRIST did come and die for our sins and gave us a way to be forgiven and spend eternal life with God.
John 15: 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Jesus Christ laid HIS life down for (say your name).and Johnny. So let us not bicker over the trivial things, but rejoice that we do have a risen savior. The link below some of you have already seen, however, it is worth seeing again. This link deals with the shepherds, the birth of an unblemished lamb, Jesus.
You can read about it in Luke. here is the link to THE CHOSEN Thank you for reading with me today. May your day be blessed with riches and if troubles fall your way rebuke them in the name of JESUS. Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
Johnny
