Merry Christmas!

The angels still say,
     "Do not be afraid.
       He has come!"

And that changes everything.

Hope is no longer wishful thinking,
    but Christ
    on Whom we can stake our lives.
His grace is not
            what must be earned,
but that which embraces us.

You are loved.
You belong.

For God so loved the world
that He gave His only Son
that whoever
      believes in Him
shall not perish
but have eternal life.
For God sent the Son
           into the world,
not to condemn the world,
but that the world
might be saved through Him.

                   John 3. 16-17

Jesus loves you.
Never forget it.

Merry Christmas, my friend!
