"...she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn." (Luke 2:6,7)Once a year, the world celebrates the birth of the King of Kings. Once a year, people search their hearts and look for ways to reach out and help others less fortunate. Once a year, we remember that without Jesus, we would have no future, no eternal life.
Wouldn't it be great if we could celebrate Jesus every day instead of just once a year? Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to reach out to those less fortunate every day? Wouldn't it be terrific to have the promise of eternal life every day?
We do. By accepting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour, we have all of these things and more. While the Christmas holiday itself is celebrated once a year, the promise of eternal life through Jesus Christ is ours every day.
Promises are found throughout the Bible. "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." (1 Peter 2:9)
Call on Jesus and make Him the center of your life today.
