and to Jacob was born Joseph the husband of Mary, by whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. Matt 1:16
Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bear a Son, and they shall call him Immanuel, which translated means, “God with us.” Matt 1:23
Thank you God our Father for coming to this earth you created to redeem us through the birth of your one and only Son, Jesus. No greater gift could ever be given than your Son coming to live among us. Help us to live worthy of the gift and the ultimate sacrifice He made through laying down his life to save ours. Amen.

Sam – Thanks for the reminder as we approach this most important celebration. Our pastor today discussed what God’s Christmas card to us might say (based on John 3:16).
God’s card to us might have 4 lines:
Line 1 – I AM!
Line 2 – I love you!
Line 3 – I am with you!
Line 4 – I can and will save you!
Mery Christmas to all as we take stock of where we are and where we are headed in 2010!!
