“Born this Day!” - Dec 25

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Happy Birthday!  …

“ ‘To you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign for you:  you will find a Child wrapped on bands of cloth and lying in a manger.’ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying, ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!’ ” (Luke 2:11-14)

Glory to You, Lord God! Fill our hearts and all the earth with Your peace again this  morning. “The people who walked in darkness have seen a great Light! … For unto us a Child is born, a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace” (Isaiah 9:2-6, NKJV). Let all the earth rejoice! Emmanuel, God is with us!

And as children around the world wake from their beds and hurry to see waits gifts are waiting for them, as mommys and daddys around the world delight to give good gifts to their children, as friends and family love one another and rejoice with each other in every tribe and tongue and nation today, let us remember the Gift of God this happy morn—the Gift of this Child who restores our hearts to child-like faith at the wonder of the love and grace of our God. Glory to God in the highest, and earth, peace, goodwill toward men and women, boys and girls, young and old, celebrating this day in all the joy of the Spirit of Christ. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.

 

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays
