Happy Birthday, Jesus!

Have you been overwhelmed with the pressures of a Christmas celebration for your family? Or are you actually dreading jumping in the process of preparation? I had a hard time right after Thanksgiving; I just did not have the motivation and was not in the "mood" yet. After some time in prayer and a few days later, I realized that I celebrate Christmas everyday in my life! I love the Lord Jesus and celebrate and give Him praise everyday of my life. In my family, He is the center point of our life. We don't make decisions without consulting Him and reading the Word. So, this Christmas spirit I seemed to be missing was actually a result of how much I dislike the commercial aspects of Christmas.

To give gifts is something I love to do. He gave us the greatest gift and to help others see that, I feel so blessed to give something to others. What a great gift is the gift of salvation. That's the best gift and the greatest miracle ever. When someone comes to know Jesus and gives their life over to Him. The angels rejoice in Heaven for every person that enters the Kingdom of Heaven.

I found a wonderful video on You Tube I'd like to share. Such sweet singing from children. I hope you enjoy it. I pray you have a blessed Christmas season and that you spend time with Him, remembering the REAL reason for the season. Merry Christmas!
