“Christmas, my child, is love in action. Every time we love, every time we give, it’s Christmas.” — Dale Evans Rogers
God gave us an extraordinary gift, one that reveals how much He loves us:
— John 3:16 TPT – A child has been born for us; a son has been given to us…
— 1 John 4:9 TLB – God showed how much he loved us by sending his only Son into this wicked world to bring to us eternal life through his death.
While some people make it a point to deliberately express forms of love (i.e., kindness, tolerance, & support) during the Christmas season, it’s only temporary. But when we have God’s love, it is a permanent condition that is demonstrated to others daily. Not just once a year at Christmas.
If you haven’t already, I encourage you to accept God’s gift of unconditional love and salvation. Then let His love not only flow into you but through you so that you can share His gift every day with others.
I hope that each of us will take Norman Wesley Brooks words to heart:
Christmas is forever, not for just one day. For loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away… So keep the Christmas spirit, share it with others far and near, from week to week and month to month, throughout the entire year!
Merry Christmas!
Thank you for your time. Be Blessed… LR Maddox
