Jesus ~ born to a virgin (Isaiah 7:14).

Jesus ~ born in Bethlehem (Micah 5:2).

Jesus ~ called “Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6).

  What is Christmas all about to you?  Are you too tired to even enjoy the celebration of the birth of Jesus?  House to clean, company to prepare for or a trip to go on, gifts to buy and wrap, food to think about, parties to attend and/or give, events to attend and/or be a part of…preparation and planning and performing.  It makes me tired even to think about all of it.  Christmas is just two days away, on a scale of 1-10, how are you doing?  Is it time to re-focus?

What should the birth of Christ be all about for you?

Are you thankful for the birth of God’s Son?  If so, thank Him…right now would be a good time.

Jesus ~ Messiah!  He loves you!
He was born, He lived, He died for you, and He was resurrected to life from the grave for you!
His birth means you and I can have a new birth…to be “born again” to a new life.  He came to give you life with Him in eternity.
When He was born in Bethlehem…He fulfilled all the prophecies of the living God concerning His conception and birth.

Followers of Christ, what a Savior we have!
Be thankful!
With joy, let us celebrate!
Our Savior ~ Jesus was born!
