In the next few weeks there will be Christmas programs in churches and schools (of course to be politically correct in schools they will be called holiday programs).Songs will be happy and you may even hear a Carol or two. Looking back in memory there was one program that stands out in my mind and I have seen and even directed many of these programs.This only one that I remember clearly is when my son, who was about 3 years old, recited this little poem:
“I’m not very big or very tall you see, but to the dear Lord Jesus I give all of me.”
From the mouth of a child, that is what our gift to the Lord should be. Our heart, mind and body should be dedicated to Him this Christmas. We scurry around finding the perfect gift for each friend or loved one and many times forget the One whose birthday we are celebrating. So this season enjoy all festivities but put Jesus first. He desires our worship, love and devotion.
Luke 18:17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.

Family is a great blessing! Large or small our family is something to be thankful for. We are especially blessed if our family are Christians. Then not only do we have earthly ties but we have spiritual bonding as well.
If your family or some of the members are not Christians there are still wonderful things we can be thankful for in our relationships to each of them. Think of a good quality in that person. Maybe they have a great sense of humor or are a good example in one area. I think of my alcoholic grandfather, he always tried to help me with problems. My mother who taught me how to be hospitable even if there was not much money or provisions. Be thankful and if they are still living and pray for them. My parents were saved shortly before their deaths after 30 years of prayer. Remember God is faithful and wants that loved one to be saved or restored back to fellowship if they are backslidden.
Ephesians 1:16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

The election is over and many people are very happy today and many are disappointed. Now more than ever is the time to pray for our country the United States of America. Pray that our country will be healed. Pray for wisdom for our leaders. It’s really up to us as Christians if our country will be better or worse in the next four years. The Bible tells us that if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and seek my face I will heal their land. Let us as Christians search our hearts to see if there is any wicked way in us, repent of anything in our lives that displease God and watch God keep His promises.
2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

The forefathers of the USA gave us many freedoms when they wrote and approved the Constitution, but the greatest freedom of all is freedom from sin provided by Jesus when he shed His blood to pay for our sins. It is a great blessing to be a citizen the USA by being born in the Country or to apply for citizenship. To become a citizen of Heaven we must be born again.
John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

Only a few more days until Election Day. There are still many people who do not know who to vote for because they don’t like either candidate running for President. If you can’t decide or will not vote because of your negative feelings, remember that this coming President will choose at least 2 or three Surpreme Court Justices who will rule on key issues that will effect the lives of you, your children and grandchildren. If you can’t vote for the candidate vote the platform.
Do not throw your vote away. Forget the commercials, negative ads and talk show rhetoric, research the issues yourself and VOTE next Tuesday.
Matthew 22:17&22 Tell us therefore, What thinkest thou? Is it lawful to give tribute unto Caesar, or not? Then saith he unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s; and unto God the things that are God’s.

Days are like suitcases…all the same size…but some people are able to pack more into them than others.
Are your days filled with empty hours or are you so busy you don’t have time to do the important things, like witnessing to that person you meet, praying or spending quality time with your family? We each have 24 hours in every day. Let us spend that time wisely, doing something that will count for eternity.
Ephesians 5:16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
