Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgement and justice in the earth. Jer 23:5With Christmas Day approaching fast, I can't help but consider the promises God has made to us. Above, the promise of the King to come (who already has). And later in the book of Acts 1:10-11 And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. Rev 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him; and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
Are you ready for the day He returns. Is your heart right with God? What better season than this to be certain that your name is on that eternal roll for heaven and that your heart is clean in His eyes.
Wishing you many blessings as the day approaches when we celebrate our Savior's birth. May this season be filled with peace, joy, and love as our families come together. And let us remember that we are celebrating the birth of our Lord.
Beautiful, Donna...and so true! There's no better time than now.
