Jesus is the gift...

...that perfectly fits every heart,
and it is with His love that all celebration starts.

We rejoice in Him as we remember His birth
and thank God for sending His only Son to earth.

His life led from a manger to a cross on a hill,
where He faithfully followed His Father's perfect will.

He freely laid down everything so that we could live,
and there is no greater treasure anyone could give.

Like a scarlet ribbon His love wrapped around the cross,
and He offered it to us all at the greatest cost.

So when we give from the heart we remember what He's done
and honor the perfect gift--God's one and only Son.

Jesus is the gift and the Giver of all good things. What's one blessing you're thankful for this Christmas?

I am thankful for My Husband Ken and to see Courage and Faith in God holding onto God's Creation,whether twins will be hers to hold or just one Child. Indeed OurFather in Heaven's Judgment Call. He has the Master plan our Creator.

Blessed Christmas dear Holley to you and your Family,

Christmas Blessings,

Ah, beautiful words for me to dine on with my quiet time cup of tea, Holley!

This Christmas, I'm thankful my husband is home and my family is together.

Merry Christmas, Holley!

Merry Christmas Holley and your family. Thank you for your faithfulness to Him and to us with your words, using them the right way, and touching hearts for conviction, peace, awareness, whatever the reader needs, and the fruit of it is what we do with the words written to us. Makes me think of how I need to stop being selfish and give out words of encouragement again, and to really mean it for people's wellness. God's Word, is everything we need.Thank you for the "word" topic. It's life to my bones.Carol

I'm greatful to Jesus for dying for my sins and making a new creation. I'm grateful for my husband, he is awesome, and for our 4 children, and 7 grandchildren. They are all undeserved gifts God has given to me.

I am blessed with new friends. Thank You, God, for bringing them into my life!

Beautifully put Holley,

So greatful for the "Cross" where HE shed His blood for me. Where would we all be without His sacrifice?

Thank you for such a wonderful reminder.

May you and your family be blessed this Christmas and Happy New Year!

Thank you Jesus for being the best gift every. God sacrificed so much when he brought his son to Earth. I pray that everyone have a very blessed Christmas and remember the reason for the season.

I ask you to please keep praying for my family, that my son's father find God and seek his salvation. I know that each day is closer to the day to his life with God. I also ask you to continue to pray for my strength and wisdom. We have so many obsticiles taht are keeping us from being a family and married. But God is so good and can move mountains when the time is right. Last, I ask you to continue to pray for Gabe, Paul's and my protection. That the enemy not allowed to seek us and rob us of anymore that he is rebuked from our presence. I pray that the Angels protect us from this evil and the world.

The blessing I have this Christmas is that my husband is still with us here on earth. 8 years ago we were told he had 2 years to live. By the grace of God he is still with us another year to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thanks be to God for letting my husband stay here a little longer to enjoy the children and grandchildren on Christmas morning!
