Thanks, God!
Hey Friends,
Happy Jesus’ Birthday! I know the debate about when the exact date really was, and I don’t want to engage in it. It is like celebrating a birthday or anniversary, just not on the exact date. It is still just as good. So, we celebrate the Advent. I, for one, am very grateful for the occasion. Are you?
On this day when Mary was struggling with labor pains and a hard journey, there was no room for them. I think it is a fitting phrase for our culture today – NO ROOM FOR CHRIST! No room in the inn. That was a long time ago, but what about today and your heart? Jesus has plenty of room in heaven on the throne, but what about in your heart? Does He have plenty of room there? Is He comfortable? “Your will be done in my heart as it is in heaven.”
This Christmas season let’s make plenty of room and let’s make it like heaven. Heaven is filled with worship. In heaven, Jesus is obeyed immediately and passionately. In heaven, He is FIRST without an equal or battle. Yep, this Christmas let’s prepare our hearts as Mary prepared the stable and the feed trough for His comfort.
Christmas – shouldn’t it be His day? Today, with all you are, celebrate HIM and HIS coming. It opened the doorway of deliverance, the roadway to righteousness, the highway of holiness, and the street of salvation. PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME!!!
Happy Jesus’ Incarnation Day!

Dear Pastor and Brother in Christ,
Yes! It ought to be Yashuas’ (Jesus Christs’)day! Everyday celebrate his birthday,death and life. As well as his return which is closer at hand then we realize.
I am sure that we all have last minute items to pick up to insure that Christmas Day is as we believe it ought to be. When out remember to have a soft heart for all you come across and share the Good News of Gods grace and mercy ,that Christ came so we don’t have to live under the Laws that God had given his people of Israel. You might even go so far as to invite a stranger or even a friend to join you in your home tomarrow to have fellowship and a celebration meal. That is when you show the room you have in your heart for Christ.
In my heart there is much room. Christ is comfortable.
Not everyone around me is comfortable because I let it be known that I’m Gods daughter thur Jesus. At least I’m making them think. I’ve made an aquantance who’s not sure to become my friend because they see me more spirital then them. I’ve had to asure them that I’m not purfect just forgiven and to have fellowship with me I’ve invited them to dinner tomarrow. I have an other aquantance who thinks my decorations on my hotel apt window shows I have much. All it shows is that I’m a believer in Christ. They believe I could be broken into. If I am broken into I know that God will replace what has been taken.
When we worship and give prayers of greatfulness to God Almighty as well as turely Love one another His will is done.
Had I still been camping would I have been invited to your home on Christmas Day? We won’t know since God has lead me to sunny Fl.
Shalom,joy,understanding,wisdom and most of all Love this day and always
Iam so greatful for Jesus’birth.Its He who 9 years ago in january rescued me from myself,my flesh,this world,and the things of it.There is so much room in my heart for Him and this time of year I just want to make room for more of Him.Honestly this year I was feeling a little down because I could not afford much gift giving.I decided to use this oppertunity to express to my girls the real meaning of Christmas(Jesus)!Isn’t it just like God to show up, my 7 year old grand daughter who my wife and I are raising just asked me if I would pray with her to receive Jesus into her heart.Wow what more could a papaw/dad ask for!Thank you Jesus,happy birthday.Pastor I wish you and your family a very Merry CHRISTmas and a BLESSED new year!
