Joy To The World!

Christmas is always a wonderful time of the year. A time of joy, a time of giving, a time of special memories with family. Despite a night of poor sleep due to Jonah having a mouth full of ulcers, we awoke to a morning filled with excitement as the children rushed to the presents under the Christmas tree. We headed to church eager to hear today's message, eager to celebrate the birth of our Saviour.

We have so much to be thankful for, other than material comforts, a roof over our heads, and family and friends, we have the freedom to worship Jesus. So let us grip that liberty with our fists and let our hearts and mouths sing out with joy as the shepherds did all those years ago. For God has bestowed upon us the most gracious gift, His son, a baby born so that he may die in order to save us from our sins. As much as I hated sounding cliched....Let us remember that Jesus is the reason for the season.

Merry Christmas!
