Purest Love

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.
