^“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” -Isaiah 9:6

Merry Christmas Everyone! Today is that Blessed day that we celebrate the wonderful coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Although we know He likely wasn’t born on this particular day in history, we can use this day to reflect on the amazing gift He gave us. Our God loved us so much that He was willing to humble Himself and become a man. A little baby was born over 2000 years ago for the purpose of becoming a sacrifice for our sins so that we might be reconciled to HIM! It brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it. It’s all in Him. Life and death is all in His hands and He paid it all for us!

He is not just a high and lofty deity somewhere out in the heavens. He is the child that was born, the Son that was given. He is Wonderful. He is Counselor. He is the mighty God. He is the everlasting Father. He is the Prince of Peace! It’s all in HIM!! This baby was called for this purpose!

What purpose are you called for today? Be assured that God has a purpose for your life! If you live for Him and walk with Him, your life will have purpose. That purpose will bring glory to God!

Thank you, Jesus for giving me this amazing life. Thank you for your love and care. Most of all, thank you for your sacrifice.  Thank you for loving sinful man so much that you gave yourself so that we might live.  We are so blessed and I am moved with appreciation!

Much love,
