"Behold the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanual, which is translated, 'God with us" Matthew 1:23 NKJV
For many people, Christmas is the greatest time of the year. Families join together and presents are exchanged, great food is enjoyed and hopefully, peace is spread around. It is Jesus' birthday and the world over many shout out 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS! And thanks to Jesus, He has made all of this possible.
But there are still many who do not know Him, they cannot share this day with Him the way we do. Perhaps you have a family member or friends with you today and you are concerned that they do not believe. This may actually be you. The words of a famous Christmas Carol come to mind:
How silently, how silently,
the wondrous Gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts,
the blessings of His heaven
No ear may hear His coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive Him still
The dear Christ enters in
Do you know Jesus as the Lord of your life, as your Saviour? You can do now and this could be the greatest Christmas you have ever had. Why not give your life to Him right now and make this a memorable year:
Lord Jesus, I come to You on this special day. I have never really known You, but I so much want to today. Please come and live in my heart and forgive all of my sin. Fill me please, with Your Holy Spirit and make this Christmas Day, the best ever. Amen.
Now go and enjoy the rest of your life.
