We are just a few days from celebrating the birth of our SAVIOR. Yes, I know it is still two (2) weeks away but it is getting really close. Especially, when you haven't done all the shopping you need to, and I may know someone that has not.
I love Christmas! Love it! I have shared before that I had experienced many Christmases prior to Blake and Olivia coming into our lives, but, once you celebrate Christmas through the eyes of a child, Christmas takes on a whole different meaning and feeling. It is only because of the child, born to a virgin, wrapped in swaddling clothes, and laid in a manger that we have reason to celebrate.
Our word for the day is Luke 2:10, KJV, which reads, "And the angel said unto them, 'Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people."
The angel had appeared to the lowly shepherds, who were out in the field tending their flocks. The angel was there to assure them that there was nothing to be afraid of, and to bring the good tidings. Not just good tidings, though; Good tidings of Great Joy. The good news of the SAVIOR being born was field with Great Joy, it still is.
Christmas is the greatest time of year! The greatest! Even when things have been a little weird, and a whole lot trying, there is reason to celebrate and share the good news. The good news that is for all people.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
