"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life." John 3:16
For if a man belongs to Christ, he is a new person. The old life is gone. New life has begun.

Merry Christmas!
"It's the most wonderful time of the year!" During this time of this year we have so much to be grateful for: family, friends, and the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. I remember when I was younger, I couldn't sleep at night because I was so excited to wake up in the morning and find a ton of presents underneath the tree. Now, as I get older I feel so blessed to celebrate the most amazing birth in history. To add to that, I also enjoy giving back to people. For me, their is nothing better then giving gifts to my family (especially my younger siblings). When I see the faces of my brother (1) and sister (6) I feel such a surge of joy. They love presents, but before I give them their gifts I always ask my sister (6) what the true meaning of Christmas is. Of course, most Christians know the "true" meaning of Christmas, but if we dig a little deeper the baby that grew up became one of the most popular men in history. Jesus came on this earth as a human to die for our sins, so we could repent and turn from our sins. God loved us so much that he GAVE His son to us so we could live in eternity with Him. That is the best present that anyone could ask for! So this year when you're recieving and giving gifts, remember the one who gave the best gift for us.
