BEGINNINGS AGAIN



BEGINNINGS AGAIN 


        CHRISTMAS IS A TIME TO GIVE AND RECEIVE

FELLOWSHIP AND FAMILY


           In Christmas, giving of gifts and receiving is a part of the joy in all the giving. 
Fellowship with our families is the biggest part of the time at Christmas.
   In I John chapter 3. verses 1 and 2 tell us "Behold, what manner of love the 
Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God:
 therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.  Beloved, 
now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be;
 but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see
him as he is."
          Again, in I John 5.1 The Bible tells us "Whosoever believeth
 that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat 
loveth him also that is begotten of him. "   
          This is my first blog post since my HIP OPERATION on March 18th, and I am happy
 to be back to blogging again with you dear ones who will be reading my posts. 
   I pray that you have a Christ-filled Christmas and much pleasure in giving
 and receiving of gifts.   
         In Jesus we have the privilege of receiving His Love and giving of that same love  to others. 
    As we go through this Christmas, we need to be aware that New Year's Eve is just around the corner
 and this is a time of  BEGINNINGS AGAIN.      
          With the expectation of receiving a gift, we do not set it under the tree for it to 
just be looked at, without opening it.     With Jesus' who came as THE ETERNAL KING
 to give his life for all who would believe, the Angel told Joseph "Thou shalt call
 His name JESUS, for He shall save His people from their sins."  Matthew 1.21    
         The best way to celebrate Christmas is to OPEN the G I F T of  God's love,  Jesus Christ 
Him as my Lord and Savior.    The fellowship with the LORD God through the Savior  by
 the Very Presence of the Holy Ghost (Spirit) in our lives is a precious treasure to 
cherish and hold close.  
          As  I look toward a New Year, I will look to BEGINNING AGAIN
with refreshed hope and renewed 
trust in the Living God,
 our One God who is manifested to us In Three Persons,
 the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  
May God give you His Presence in the days ahead.
