It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.
Light a candle for Jesus.
Light a candle for Jesus.

GOD'S PRESENCE TO US
From a CD, Christmas All Year Round by Dennis Jernigan. What a wonderful way to celebrate Christ 365 days a year. Please enjoy the lyrics to the song.
Lyrics: Joy to the world! For the Babe that was born Didn't stay in the manger On that blessed morn! Joy to the world! For His Son came to save! Overcoming to free us From sin and the grave!
Joy to the world! For the Lamb Who was slain! On the cross He bore all of our Sin and our shame! Joy to the world! For His love still abides! Yes, the grave could not hold Him! Our Lord is alive!
Chorus: Hallelujah! Sing Hallelujah to the King! Joy to the world! Let the nations all sing! Hallelujah! Sing Glory! Let Hosannas ring!
Joy to the world! He is Jesus the King!
Joy to the world! For His love without end! For we were not abandoned to die in our sin! Joy to the world! For His mercy and grace! God has sent a Redeemer to die in our place!
HALLELUJAH! GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST! A KING IS BORN!
Here is a man who was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. He grew up in another village. He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty. Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher. He never owned a home. He never wrote a book. He never held an office. He never had a family. He never went to college. He never put His foot inside a big city. He never traveled two hundred miles from the place He was born. He never did one of the things that usually accompany greatness. He had no credentials but Himself...
While still a young man, the tide of popular opinion turned against him. His friends ran away. One of them denied Him. He was turned over to His enemies. He went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed upon a cross between two thieves. While He was dying His executioners gambled for the only piece of property He had on earth – His coat. When He was dead, He was laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend.
Nineteen long centuries have come and gone, and today He is a centerpiece of the human race and leader of the column of progress. I am far within the mark when I say that all the armies that ever marched, all the navies that were ever built; all the parliaments that ever sat and all the kings that ever reigned, put together, have not affected the life of man upon this earth as powerfully as has that one solitary life.
This essay was adapted from a sermon by Dr James Allan Francis

May you all have a wonderful Christmas!!
Remember, Christmas begins with
CHRIST
The greatest gift you will ever receive, when you accept Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. There is none like Him. You cannot enter heaven with you being just good or doing good works. God is not a respecter of person. Without Jesus being the Lord of your life, your good works are like filthy rags, it is written. No one is good enough to be with a God that is Holy in every way, that is why He sent a Savior, He empty out His glory to walk among men, to suffer and die for our sins through Jesus. Sin had to be paid for. Jesus was made sin, for all those that will believe on Him. God made it possible for everyone to be with Him, and His name is Jesus, Who is the CHRIST the King and Who is Lord of Lords.
