Don't Miss CHRIST this CHRISTmas!

John 1:2&14
(1)In the beginning was the WORD, and the WORD
was with GOD and the WORD was GOD...

(14) And the WORD was made flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld HIS glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the FATHER,) full of grace & truth!!

Welcome to the CHRISTmas edition of Building on the WORD.....

This CHRISTmas we must make sure we don't miss CHRIST!
It's easy in the hurry of the season - in the shopping - in the doing -
we work hard to celebrate this time of year - it's good to be with family -
and there is nothing wrong with buying things -but if we are not careful the real meaning of this time of year will be lost - and we cannot go back and re-do it -
the world pressures us to buy this or that - to do this or that - we don't get to take the time and just reflect much - there is always something that wants our attention - it's in this that we often fail to see CHRIST in CHRISTmas -
we must be willing to slow down - to seek God's face - and find out that apart from JESUS we have no hope - it's in that - that GOD sent HIS only SON -
The WORD the Bible says - was made flesh - from the beginning the WORD was with GOD - the WORD is really JESUS - and JESUS created everything - how can we speed through this season without giving Him a second thought - it's HIS birthday you know - let's take some time this year to slow down and seek Christ and remember that HE is our only hope!
Let's make sure CHRIST has first place in our lives during CHRISTmas and the rest of the year long - tomorrow I want to go further - but right now I just want to introduce those thoughts to you - we must make sure we don't miss CHRIST in CHRISTmas -

Let's dwell in the fact that JESUS became flesh and dwelt among us!

BUILDING ON THE WORD FOR 12/21/09
WITHOUT CHRIST - THERE WOULD BE NO CHRISTMAS!

CHRISTmas Note: BECAUSE JESUS WAS BORN - WE HAVE LIFE FOREVER IN HIM!
