Home for Christmas!

December 23, 2009 |

What a wonderful time of year. Christmas is the time for giving, the time for eating, and the time for visiting with family and friends. Perhaps, if you are like me, you don’t have many opportunities to spend with your family because you live far away. This also provides an even greater challenge to seeing extended family. I am visiting my family on the coast and will have the opportunity to spend New Year’s with family in east Tennessee. Cherish every moment you have with your families over the Christmas season. Spend time with them. Give of yourselves to them. Enjoy their company and their cooking, but most of all, remind them why we celebrate. If your family members already know Jesus and have received the ultimate gift of salvation, rejoice together at the Savior’s birth. If your family members do not know Christ, tell them about the greatest story ever told. Tell them the good news of salvation. If you live near your family remember not to take your family for granted. You may have them all the time, but your family was given to you by God!

 Say a special prayer this Christmas for all your friends and family that are lost. Especially remember those who have lost close loved ones. This time of year can be difficult. Do everything you can to make this Christmas special for those you come in contact with. Thanks again to my church family for all you have done o make our first Christmas with you special. We hope that we can return the love in action, service and giving of ourselves. Merry Christmas!
