Merry Christmas!

by Rachel Marie Martin
For unto us a child is born
unto us a son is given
and the government shall be on his shoulders.
And he shall be called
Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God,
Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace.

I’m closing the computer screen for these two days — and I’m grabbing some cookies {okay more than a couple}, enjoying my family, and most importantly basking in the true meaning of Christmas — the birth of Jesus. Praying that you too, can have a beautiful day, a set-aside day, where you can enjoy your family and have true joy!

Merry Christmas!

I really love that little church!
On this Christmas Eve look to the only source of true hope, peace, and salvation! Praying!
Matthew 1:20-23 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins. Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
