Sweet Baby Jesus Sleeping in a Manor

IT'S CHRISTMAS!!
Christmas is definitely one of my favorite holiday of the year because I get to put up the Christmas tree with my family and then afterwards I sit on the couch with my brothers watching Christmas movies. Well, that's what me and my family did during the holiday season but as I grew up and gained some more knowledge I realized that Christmas was more than that. Do you guys remember the story from the bible of how Mary (a virgin woman) became pregnant with Jesus in her belly because of GOD and how GOD asked Joseph to be with Mary while she was carrying the lord of lords and king of kings? Well I remember that story very well because that story totally changed everything. While Mary was pregnant with Jesus there came a time that she was  ready to give birth but they didn't have a place where Mary can give birth so they went to each houses begging if Mary could give birth in their place but all of them rejected them. After everyone rejected them they had no other choice but to travel too Bethlehem where Jesus was born in a manger. Once Jesus was born there were prophets who came with gifts like gold for sweet baby Jesus. Years later Jesus grew up preaching to people at a young age and people were very interested in what he was saying. He preached about heaven and hell, He performed miracles, and brought the dead back to life. 

This Christmas we should celebrate the birth of Jesus because his birth changed many people lives and He informed His people about heaven and the things that they needed to do in order to get there someday. Remember that Jesus is still alive today and He's the same God as he was while walking on this earth and teaching to his disciples'.
God loves us so much that he sent his only son to be born in this earth so that he can die in our place, preach to us about heaven and hell, heal us of our diseases, defend us when the enemy tries to attack us, and protect us wherever we go and wherever we are. 
I pray that you have a wonderful Christmas with families but at the same time I pray that you reflect upon how Jesus changed your life throughout the years and how he's making an impact in your life today. 

Merry Christmas from my family to yours:)
                       Sincerely.

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.
