A Holiday Moment
As we enter into the “Holiday Season”, it is very important that Jesus remains the center of our holiday worship. As much as anyone, I simply adore this time of the year and all of its cheer. But some times as I walk through the stores I notice how extra rude and grumpy people become. The reason is simple. December is about X-mas and not about Christ sacrificial birth. Christmas is about God keeping His promise to mankind that He would send a redeemer to free man from the bondage of Satan. Yes, Yehua came as a baby, but He knew that as a man he would be a sacrificial lamb. Many years ago I was listening to the radio and a song came on. It was the perfect Christmas/ Easter song. Yes, Jesus may be a baby now, but Mary soon he will be the changer of so many lives. I must admit that while I love the traditional Christmas songs, and will encouraged play them Strongly and sing them throughoutfor thisall season, Mary Did You Know is probably my favorite song.

Mary did you know that your baby boy would some day walk on water? Mary did you know that your baby boy would save our sons and
daughters? Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new? This child that you've delivered, will soon deliver you. Mary did you know that your baby boy would give sight to a blind man? Mary did you know that your baby boy would calm a storm with his hand? Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod? And when you kiss your little baby, you have kissed the face of God. Oh Mary, did you know? The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the dead will live again. The lame will leap, the dumb will speak, the praises of the lamb. Mary did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation? Mary did you know that your baby boy would one day rule the nations? Did you know that your baby boy is heaven's perfect Lamb? members This sleeping child you're holding is the great- I AM Have A Merry Christmas & Blessed Holiday
