Jesus' Birthday

It's time to celebrate the birthday of Emmanuel, God with us.
It has been comforting to light the Advent candles at dinner time each evening.
As the sun was setting and the sky became dark, the round wreath of boxwood greens and the four candles shining reminded us of many eternal truths.
Jesus came and He is coming again!
Jesus came from Glory to sleep on hay in a humble manager to dwell with us.
Like the wreath that has no beginning or end, the eternal God became man and was given the name Jesus by the angel.
The angels sang to worship the baby and we can sing too!
When the baby became a man, He said, "I AM the Light of the World..."(John 9:5).
His disciple, John also wrote, "In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shined in the darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not."(John 1:4-5)

It is the beautiful season when we sing, "Joy to the world, the Lord has come!"
We have a Savior, that is Christ the LORD, we do have much to celebrate this holy Christmas eve, He lights our way out of the darkness of sin and death, to eternal Life.
