Christmas Countdown

Isaiah 7:14
The virgin will be with a child and will give birth to a son and will call Him Immanuel.

The Christmas countdown is on!  We're officially a week before Christmas! 

In lieu of finishing our Boot Camp series  in the midst of such a busy season, I'm going to hold off until after Christmas.   The subject deserves our focus. 

Instead, over the next week, I'm going to share Christmas tips and nuggets to get your heart and mind toward the Reason for the season.

Christmas Tip #1:
Grab a cup of hot coffee and tea...  Grab a warm, cozy blanket...  Grab your Bible and sit down in a comfy chair...  Preferably by your Christmas Tree or fireplace EACH DAY.

Before shopping, decorating and entertaining, pending time in prayer and Bible reading.

Suggested Christmas Reading for the Day:
  • Isaiah 7:14 - The coming Messiah
  • Isaiah 9:6,7 - The coming Messiah
  • Luke 1:5-25 - Elizabeth's pregnancy with John the Baptist  (John was Jesus' cousin.)
Time with Him will supernaturally enable you to:
  • Exhibit kindness to the people closest to you.  Sadly, they can often get the brunt of our bad moods.
  • Love the unlovable people you may be forced to see at parties, celebrations, etc...
  • You'll resist the temptation to race the senior citizen to the only table in the restaurant! (Sadly, I once did this - and won.)
  • You'll exhibit the temperament of Jesus, even while standing in a long line!
