A Christmas Blog

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas you guys. This blog post will be about the birth of Jesus Christ our Lord and savior. Whenever Christmas comes around, people are focused on buying a Christmas tree and decorating the house for this season and what presents they're going to get for their kids that they miss out on the true meaning of Christmas. 19 years ago when I was just a child,, my main focus on Christmas was to make sure that I got a Barbie doll and other things that I would ask Santa for. I remember one Christmas, I got so mad because I didn't get everything that I wanted on my list that I even started a tantrum which made my parents very angry that I got sent to my room for at least an hour. needless to say, Christmas should be about the birth of Christ because if God Hadn't sent Jesus to be born in a major, then who would've shown us how to love one another, who would've taught us how to get to heaven and healed all of our disease? Who would've defeated Satan and set us free from evil? And who would've performed miracles like casting out demons out of people and who would've laid down his life on the cross just so that we could receive eternal life in heaven? All of this wouldn't be possible if God had never sent Jesus into Mary womb to be born in a major. Baby Jesus was the greatest gift that God sent to us and really that's all we need in life. We need Jesus to keep us safe. We need Jesus to be healed. We need Jesus to show us the right path. And we need Jesus to deliver us from evil. Baby Jesus grew up into a toddler, then into a teenager, then into an adult who speaks truths into our soul and mind. I don't know what I would do or who I would be without him. So during this Christmas season, take a moment to tell your kids about the story of Jesus birth and if you're single without any kids, sit back and just open your bible to the story to remind yourself how truly blessed you are to have someone to die in your place at the cross just so that you can receive eternal life with him in heaven. Have a Merry Christmas and I pray that God uses you this holiday season.

What Does It Mean To Be a Christ Follower

To start of, I grew up in a Christian home and was raised by my parents who taught me to always put god first in my life because without him my life is meaningless. When I was a child my mom bought me a kids Bible with pictures on the other side of the page so that I can imagine what was happening through the pictures. The day that I truly understood what Christ did for me on the cross was the day that I truly surrendered my life to Christ because I wanted to be a part of his family and I wanted to live for him until the day that he calls me home. Being a Christ follower taught me to always put god first in my life no matter what because He's the only one who can save me and make all my problems go away. After I had finished my freshmen year of high school, I decided that I wanted to get baptized. Getting baptized was my decision because when my pastor announced it to the church I decided that I wanted to sign up to get baptized. Before getting baptized, my pastor approached me and

What If Your Blessings Come Through Tears

Hi sweet people:) As you all may already know I am a college student at Mississippi State University so I haven't had the time to blog but today I am so glad that I do  because I want to share with you guys today what God has been doing in my life lately. As you may see the title for this post is called, "What if Your Blessing Comes Through Tears" and I got this title from one of my favorite songs that I like to listen to. In this life that we're living we tend to go through some hard times that we tend to question God love towards us his own children. Some of the questions that we tend to ask him is, "why can't you may all of the pain go away"? "Why are you letting me suffer like this if you truly love me"? These questions are one of the most hardest things that we want God to answer but I know that if something happens it's because God wants to show us something to open our eyes clearly or he just wants to test our faith towards him.

A Christmas Post

Don't Forget Jesus Christmas is a special time To reflect on Jesus Christ, The wonder of His lowly birth Brings meaning to our lives There really is no other reason, We celebrate this day, The birth of God's precious son And the life, He willingly gave But so much seems to distract us In the busyness of our lives, We lose our focus in all the happenings, Not knowing, we leave out Christ We lose sight of the true meaning As we endlessly rush about, Trying to find that perfect gift, Seems to cloud our Saviour out We need to stop and reflect awhile, Remembering our precious Lord, His birth, His life and sacrifice And all that He stands for For though the world may celebrate, It seems, though, for other reasons, Let's keep in mind that Jesus Christ Is the true meaning of the season.
