Merry Christmas!

What a wonderful year it has been! As Christmas falls upon us, and 2009 comes to an end, we find ourselves reflecting upon the blessings in our lives. We count each of you as one of those blessings. As we think of each of you, we cannot help to recall Paul’s words, as he wrote to the church of Corinth, “I thank my God always concerning you…” Each one of you are dear to us! We are thankful for you, and blessed to have you in our lives.

Throughout the busyness of this season we pray you’ll take time to truly reflect on the reason we celebrate. Luke 1:31-34, “And behold, you will conceive in your womb, and bear a son, and you shall name Him Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David; and He will reign over the house of Jacob forever; and His kingdom will have no end.” Verse 35… “The holy offspring shall be called the SON OF GOD.”

The very Son of God, Jesus, sent to this world in a most humble state. Yet He was born, not just for life, but for death…Not just for peace, but for people…not just for sin, but for salvation. The Savior…humbled, yet exalted.

Praise be to God!! This is why we celebrate!
