Merry Christmas

Christmas is right around the corner and as I write this I am reminded of all the last minute things I need to get done. It is very easy to get distracted from the focus of Christ. Sometimes I get so frustrated that I just want to say, "Enough! The gifts and all this hustle, just can't we just stop!"

Well I hope everyone has a blessed Christmas and enjoy their week with friends and family.

I would like to just share what the heavenly host praised to God as the shepherds were watching and listening to the news of Christ's birth.

Luke 2:14~ Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased.

Jesus brings God's glory on earth for mankind.
Jesus is peace the true peace that the Jews spoke of.
God is pleased in his Son.
We find true peace in Christ with our souls and life.
When we receive the son, God is pleased in us.

May you desire Christ even more everyday as we can focus on him through all things.
