Jesus, God’s Gift to Us!
December 10, 2023Mistletoe-Symbol of God’s Love
December 9, 2023
Mistletoe symbolizes the love we are able to offer to others only because of Christ who “first loves us.”
This year, tell family and friends about the true meaning of mistletoe.
Be sure to let them know that the corresponding kiss is a symbol of peace, romance and the love of a Heavenly Father who sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross, was buried and rose again on the third day, as the payment for all our sins.
God’s love for us is the true meaning of Christmas.
1 John 4:19 We love him, because he first loved us.
SOS Events Senior Servants
December 8, 2023
SOS Events is blessed to have a group of dedicated ladies come every month to volunteer by helping to put together the “Life Saver News” newsletter for mailing.
The first Thursday in December they work in the morning and then we celebrate Christmas with food, fellowship and fun.
Some of these ladies have been doing this for many years and others are new, but they are all loved and appreciated.
Thank you my friends for your faithfulness.
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. 1 John 1:7
Candy Cane-Symbol of the Good Shepherd
December 7, 2023
In Indiana, a candy maker wanted to make a candy that could be a reminder of Jesus Christ, so he made the Christmas candy cane.
He started off with a stick of pure white hard candy. The white color symbolized the virgin birth and the sinless nature of Jesus, and the hard candy symbolized the solid rock which was the foundation of the church, and firmness of the promises of God.
The candy maker made the candy in the form of a J, which represented the name of Jesus and the staff of the Good Shepherds.
He then stained it with three stripes which showed the scourging Jesus received, and symbolized the blood shed by Christ on the cross.
When you break the cane, it reminds us that Jesus’ body was broken for us.
John 10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
The Wreath-Symbol of Eternal Life
December 6, 2023
The wreath has significant meaning for the season. It’s circular shape represents eternity, for it has no beginning and no end.
For a Christian, it represents an unending circle of life. The evergreen, most frequently used in making wreathes, symbolizes growth and everlasting life.
And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and my Father are one.
John 10:28-30
Symbol of Christmas! The Poinsettia
December 5, 2023
One of the beautiful symbols of Christmas is the pointsettia plant that we like to decorate with for the holiday. In Florida and other warm climates the plants grow and bloom in December.
The shape reminds us of the star that led the wise men to Bethlehem to worship Jesus.
The red color the precious blood of Jesus, shed for us, the only we can have our sins forgiven. White plants, a symbol of Jesus’ purity.
The poinsettia, a wonderful reminder of the true meaning of Christmas.
1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
JESUS Is The Reason For The Season!
December 4, 2023
John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
In all the hustle and bustle of this busy season, sometimes the person we forget is Jesus.
We think about family and friends. Shopping, presents, parties and feasts. The most important person gets pushed to the background.
It is important to keep Christ in Christmas. Do not neglect Bible reading and prayer. We can get so caught up in festivities that our enemy can slip in and take away our joy and fellowship with Jesus.
Have A Blessed Sunday!

Psalm 111:1, KJV
Your Time Is The Best Gift!
December 2, 2023
What a wonderful verse to start with for the month of December! God does supply all our needs.
Some people have abundance of money and material things. Others have very little. The Christmas season is a time for giving. It is not the cost of the gifts, it is the gift given from the heart that counts.
A phone call, letter or an invitation for a meal can mean more than the most expensive present in the world. Your time with your friends and family is the most meaningful gift you can give.
God wants the same thing. You can give a large offering, go to church or do some charity work, but the most important thing you can give to God is time to read His word, pray and then tell someone else about His special gift, the Lord Jesus.
December 1st. Are You Waiting For Jesus?
December 1, 2023
25 days until Christmas. To some that is exciting. Children waiting, anxiously waiting. Will it ever come.
Moms and Dads are thinking, so soon and so much to do.
Older folks may not welcome the day so much. Maybe they are alone or away from loved ones.
Whatever your expectations about Christmas, it will come.
Looking back to the birth of. Jesus. He was expected for years. People looked forward to His coming. When He did enter the world it was not as a king as they expected, but as a little baby in a lowly manger.
He was born to die. He grew up, died on a cross and rose again. Then after appearing to many He ascended into Heaven.
He will return. This time as King. Are you looking and waiting? Just like Christmas past, Jesus is coming again!
