SUNDAY- Welcome to the sabbath! In what ever you do this day,, remember who made it for you,, who gave it to you, and who loves you more than one can ever imagine in this world...and also, as you amber through it... don't forget to give back some of this love,,, in quaintly,! May God bless you this day and all days...........
Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young!
Where is the line to see Jesus?
As I walk through the Malls, the biggest retail stores.. I see the big Christmas Trees,, all decorated, lights glowing,, tall,, huge,, can see from a distance, lower floor, or upper floor.. kids, teens, adults, all looking in awe,, at this sight... and right there under that tree,, is "Ole Saint Nick" ,, yes Santa Claus, all decked out in his red and white suit.. children in line to set on his knee,, give him that magic list of "what I want for Christmas",, with the dreams to come.. of the things all scattered around their tree at home,, IF they have one... maybe you might see the Mom and child, that may be ragged ,,or not cloth real great,, standing in line,, what of that Mom, when that magical night gets here? There is nothing wrong with this scene, if you play it right,,and let the kids, know, that all asked for ,, may and may not be under that tree,,, let the dreams go,, but fix those dreams , so that they don't become nightmares. to some..... and even to the wealthy or the semi-wealthy,, don't give them YOUR own dreams,, and all they put on their
list... give with a clear head ,, not all of your heart,,,Let them know the biggest gift given on this night,, is the Son of God, who was born,, to a virgin,, on this very night 2011 years ago... about the star that shone all around the world,, the guests ,, invited to visit , not by mail, nor note,, but by real live angels ,, from Heaven,, sent by God Almighty, himself.. just as He has sent His Son through a virgin birth... the Son,, our way,,, our Savior , this baby who will grow and give His all , His life on this earth,, FOR US,, this baby,, this Son of God sent to us to be born as we, and die like us, but to arise again!
I see,,, His Manger,,, covered over with more and more ribbon packages.. and only a small sight of this little baby's head showing through... rather than open, as it was in the beginning,, with love and affection and worship.
Has the United States gone to the Christmas day,, with packages only in their hands and heart,, or do they first get in line,, & with their children ,, to see and worship that little baby,, the one called Jesus? If you tear the packages away,, and really look,, folks,, He, is still there,, there for you and I,, our only way through this life.. yes,, it is Little Baby Jesus ,, lying in a manager ,, just for you and I.. sent by the God of all,, the Father of all.. the angels still on guard and shinning as He is, just as the star, over this world, and all over Heaven!,, Now,,, do we stand in line first to see Santa,, or do we stand in the line of the true meaning of Christmas,,,,,
THE LINE,,,, TO SEE JESUS!
I can see Him,, can you?
God , forgive this retail nation, and may all hear ,, see and remember the reason for this season that is coming,,, and that is the birth of Your Son,, our Jesus Christ, and Savior! amen
John HIcks
I can add nothing more, except ,, please remember,, as you stress to buy,, don't worry about presents. just "pre-sent" to all,,, the present God gave to all,, Jesus!... Will you celebrate "the reason for this season",,, with me?
