For unto you
a Saviour is born; He is Christ the Lord (Luke 2:11)
Long ago, one silent night, God revealed His
glory bright. His own mage came to man for salvation’s
matchless plan. Jesus, Saviour, Shepherd, King – Lord of all
to you we bring. Praises, wonder, thanks, and love For this
gift from God above.~Daysprings cards
What a
beautiful concept to know and hold on tight to in our hearts! God’s love is at
the heart of every Christmas. His love came down to us; he sent His Son to us, to
walk this earth and show us another way to live our lives – a more righteous,
most excellent way.
It’s a scary
thought when taking the step, but once you’ve stepped out, once you entrust
your life to Him you’ll reap the riches of his love and blessings that he pours
out. You’ll experience a peace that the Bible describes as that which ‘surpasses
all understanding’ (Philippians 4:7).
His love is unconditional,
loyal, faithful, ceaseless, boundless, unending, unwavering. His grace for us
we cannot outrun.
We could
never earn his heart nor His love; His gift, of His only Son, Jesus, is given
freely without expectation of anything in return. That is what grace is. Our
attempt of goodness falls far short of His. All our Lord God asks is that we
seek to live our lives that are fruitful for Him, to surrender our hearts and accept HIS gift of salvation.
But the great victory comes when the devil knows, that you know, that he is defeated
v1. In Christ alone, my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song This cornerstone, this solid ground Firm through the fiercest drought and storm What heights of love, what depths of peace When fears are stilled, when strivings cease My comforter, my all in all Here in the Love of Christ, I stand. v3. There in the ground, his body lay Light of the World, by darkness slain Then bursting forth, in glorious day, up from the grave he rose again! And as he stands in victory, sin's curse has lost its grip on me For I am his, and he is mine bought with the precious blood of Christ
