For Unto You Is Born This Day...
A Savior...Christ The Lord

Merry CHRISTmas!!

LUKE 2:1-20
King James Version (KJV)

1..And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.

2..(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3..And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4..And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)

5..To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

6..And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

7..And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

8..And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9..And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10..And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11..For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.

12..And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13..And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14..Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

15..And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

16..And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

17..And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

18..And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

19..But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.

20..And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

Thanks, radu...thanks to our troops wherever they may be for Christmas.
Are you and your kitties gonna be warm enough? My brother is in Jamestown and it is 30.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Burns are horrid!!!!!!!

Doesn’t San Antonio have a military burn center? Maybe civilians use it as well.

[radu]

Howdy Kathy!
So your brother made the move already? Cool. 30’s warm. We’re at 21 now and it’s supposed to bottom out in the mid-teens for the night. BRRRR! But I imagine that’s warm compared to the temps up your way!

All the outside kitties are inside so all are warm and toasty. There’s a large “rug” of furballs lying in front of the big gas heater right now. LOL!

[goat granny]

so sorry, burns are horrid for both the patient and the nurses that have to change the dressings. Usually give morphine before dressing changes. May she be painless during these proceedures....God Bless..

Christingle
December 25, 2013

Read: 1 John 1:1-7

That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world. —John 1:9

Bible in a Year:
Zephaniah 1-3; Revelation 16

In the Czech Republic and other places, the Christmas celebration includes “Christingles.” A Christingle is an orange, representing the world, with a candle placed in the top of it to symbolize Christ the light of the world. A red ribbon encircles the orange, symbolizing the blood of Jesus. Four toothpicks with dried fruits are placed through the ribbon into the sides of the orange, representing the fruits of the earth.

This simple visual aid vividly represents the purpose behind Christ’s coming—to bring light into the darkness and to redeem a broken world by shedding His blood.

In John’s account of Christ’s life, the disciple describes Jesus as the Light of the world. He wrote of Christ: “That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world” (John 1:9). Not only did Christ the Light come to penetrate our world’s darkness, but He is also “The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” (v.29).

Think of it! The baby of Bethlehem became the living, risen Christ who has rescued us from our sin. And so John instructs us to “walk in the light as He is in the light” (1 John 1:7). May all who have experienced His rescue find in Jesus the peace of walking in His light.

Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light;
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in Thee tonight. —Brooks

The newborn Christ-child became the Light of the world and the Lamb of God.

[MeekMom]

Amen Mayor! God bless you sir!

Merry Christmas! :)

Thanks, gg....that's my prayer too. Dear Lord, please help Ashley with the pain,
and watch over the nurses as they do their jobs.

MERRY CHRIST MAS!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hey, this is warm in here! LOL!!

Are you going to get snow?

It was touch and go for a while...games with the mortgage company. They weren’t sure that they wanted to finance someone who works on the slope for 2 weeks and is then home for 2. Didn’t seem to matter that his wife is there. He finally gave them an ultimatum....do it now or I’m gone. The seller was not very happy about the drama.

He is having to learn about riding mowers (he loves it) and now horses. She has had them before, he knows nothing. d:o)

[ConservativeStatement]

Merry Christmas Kathy and to all.
