As you gather with your precious family today, remember that it isn’t all about the presents under the tree but rather those that are gathered around the tree with you – the wonderful family that God has blessed you with!    Invite the presence of God into your celebrations today.   Thank God for sending His son, Jesus, as a little tiny baby boy born on Christmas day.  God has given us all the greatest gift we could ever receive – the gift of Salvation through this tiny baby that grew into a man that would die on the cross with outstretched arms as if to say, “This is how much I love you!”   If you haven’t already done so, please consider giving your heart to Jesus this holiday season.  Ask Him to come into your heart and into your life as your Lord and Savior.  Have a personal relationship with Jesus, and I promise that  you will walk into the year 2014 a completely changed person living for Jesus.   If you want a better you for the new year – start with Jesus!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours.
