Christmas Every Day

This was my devotion for the day;
Sing praises to the Lord. . . .Tell the Nations what He has done. Psalm 9 : 11

You have Christmas every day. Your gift bears not toys and books, but God himself!
His work: on the cross and in the resurrection. As a result, your sin brings no guilt, and the grave brings no fear. His energy: its not up to you. You can do all things through Christ, who gives you strength.
His Lordship: he is in charge of you, and looks out for you.
His Love: what can separate you from it? Who could imagine such gifts? Who could imagine not opening them?

Now that is something to ponder, I am trying to really keep my focus on Jesus, He is truly the Reason for the Season. Hope you will too.
God Bless You and Watch Your Corners,
Deb

  4. The events of the summer have changed me so dramatically that all things that I do are vetted through the reality of life and the fact that it is so fragile.. We must change our focus away from the fringes of the gospel and move to the center...... The foundation...... The rock.......

    Love ya girl.
