Happy Birthday Jesus! Lord what gift could we possibly offer You, You who own everything? What would make You happy? Is it forgiveness, gratitude, more time studying your Word? Spreading the Good News? I believe these things will please you. This CHRISTmas may we give God the birthday gift that will keep on giving. Spending more time with Him in prayer, growing in our faith. Loving one another and helping those in need. Who else do you know that gives gifts on their birhday? Lord thank you for waking me this morning on Your birthday. Thank you for giving me my first gifts of the day, lungs to breathe, eyes to see, the ability to walk, and a heart that beats. Help me today to use these gifts to love , help, and to see all Your beauty in this ugly World. Help me today to keep my gaze on you and my glance on the world. And when I do glance at the world, help me to help somebody see You through my eyes! You are an awesome God!!! Merry CHRISTmas brothers and sisters. As we celebrate today, let us remember to invite God to His birthday celebration! He is the reason for the season! Love and Blessings…
