It's the time of the year to celebrate our dear friends and family, but let us not forget the reason we all come together, the birth of Jesus Christ, That is the true meaning of Christmas, Whatever is going on in your world this Christmas, there is no better gift you can give yourself than to receive the One who came to earth and died on your behalf. He offers you complete forgiveness and the ability to know him on a personal level resulting in a more fulfilling life. He is God and he asks us to place our lives under his direction. As long as we rely on our own good life and ourselves we distance ourselves from God and we remain separated from him by our sin. He asks us to empty our hands of our efforts and instead receive his gift of forgiveness and a relationship with him, I'd like to give you the opportunity right now to ask him into your life. You will never find a better offer, nor make a better decision, I'll help you put it into words. You could say to him, "Jesus, thank you for dying for my sins and paying the penalty. I open the door and invite you into my life. I want to know you. Thank you for forgiving my sins and giving me an eternal relationship with you." If you asked Jesus into your life right now, he promises to never leave you. Jesus said (speaking of us as his sheep), "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me; and I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish, and no one can snatch them out of my hand." There is no greater joy at Christmas, no more fulfilling gift, than entering into a personal relationship with Jesus. You could look forward to Christmas, not dependent on how your family acts or on what gifts you receive, but having the peace and joy that comes from having a relationship with God. Instead of just knowing about him, you can know him, personally, and understand what Christmas is all about..."For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him, should not perish, but have eternal life." #JesusIsTheReasonForTheSeason ✝️🎄✝️
