Here we are again… Christmas!
Seems like we just put away last year’s decorations, wrapping paper, and bows.
The to-do list is long and there may be a few unchecked lines.
Not to worry. The only thing that matters is to spend time with those we love!
Enjoying hot apple cider, quiet chats, stomach-hurting laughter, and happy times
with someone so special that nothing in this world could convince you to miss the time together.
There was another One who came to be with you!
He did give up everything – and He owned it all.
He put His divine nature aside to arrive as a baby – think of it!
He loved you so much He hung on a tree taking your punishment.
On the third day He arose and resumed his place as God the Son and waits for you to accept his gift of supreme love – He wants to be with you for all eternity!
He doesn’t want your money, your position, your education, your worldly goods, your ‘good’ works – He wants nothing but your heart – think of it!
How very different from all we hear today. Do this, do that, don’t do this, don’t do that. Give, do, go, suffer, condemn…
He gave all for us!
A gift is never forced on you, you must simply accept it to enjoy all it holds.
He gave you the gift of freedom, joy, life! – think of it!
He is the Reason we celebrate!
Merry Christmas from the Belle Team!
