Merry Christmas!!!




Merry Christmas! We hope you have a wonderful holiday season focused on Christ and all He has done us.

I love this passage and was reminded of it yesterday when my dad read it in his sermon. This is the reason for the season!

"Therefore, as through one man’s offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man’s righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life. For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous. Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 5:18-21

What an awesome sacrifice! Christ came to this earth and humbled Himself to be born - that fact alone is amazing to me. He could have just shown up as a man. I am very thankful for everything that Christ has done for me and for my family!
