"Be grateful for the good things that the Lord your God has given you and your family; and let the Levites and the foreigners who live among you join in the celebration."
***********************************
Gratitude & Joy. There is no quicker way to experiencing joy in this life than by
praising our Triune God--Father, Son, and Holy Spirit-- in gratitude for all
His profound and abundant blessings He has showered upon each of us.
Praise Him for your successes AND your challenges, your home, your loved ones, family and co-workers alike...Praise Him for it all, because without the Lord we are nothing left on our own!
Putting aside all worldly gifts, let this Christmas be one of extreme gratitude to God for His sublime generosity. He gave us life, people to love and care about us and people to love. God has given each of us unique gifts to share with the world, and successes when we use those gifts well. He is our great provider and lover of our souls--To be 'self-made' is but an illusion.
For God has even given us His only Son, Jesus Christ, whom we celebrate this Christmas season and all the days of our lives, and subsequently, Salvation for those who believe in Him. Let this Christmas be truly special as you share Jesus with others and praise and celebrate His holy name as the Author of Life, Almighty Protector, Great Comforter, Supreme Counselor, Savior for all of humanity.
May you continue to praise His Holy Name through the coming year and experience a tremendous outpouring of joy that lasts far past the holiday season!
Jesus told him, "I AM the Way, the Truth and the Life.
No one comes to the Father except through me."
John 14:6
