Merry Christmas!


Merry Christmas! 

Below is a reflection Dad wrote for Christmas Day one year.  Praying all of you have a most blessed Christmas with your family and friends. 

Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6), Mighty God (Isaiah 9:6), Wonderful Counselor (Isaiah 9:6), Lamb of God (John 1:29), Author of Life (Acts 3:15), Word of Life (1 John 1:1), Author and Finisher of Our Faith (Hebrews 12:2), Advocate (1 John 2:1), The Way (John 14:6), Dayspring (Luke 1:78), I Am (John 8:58), Son of God (John 1:34), Messiah (John 1:41), The Truth (John 14:6), Savior (Titus 3: 6), Chief Cornerstone (Ephesians 2:20), King of Kings (Revelation 19:16), Light of the World (John 8:12), Head of the Church (Ephesians 1:22), Morning Star (Revelation 22:16), Chief Shepherd (1 Peter 5:4), Resurrection and Life (John 11:25), Horn of Salvation (Luke 1:69), The Alpha and Omega (Revelation 1:8). Jesus, whose birth we celebrate this day, cannot be exhausted in just one word or phrase.  Let these names or titles sink into your mind and heart. Keep them with you; reflect on them, letting Jesus be born anew in you.

Emmanuel, God-with-us, I give you my heart today as a place for you to rest.
