What a night to remember !!!

So [the shepherds] hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. — Luke 2:16

My grand mother taught me this beautiful song when I was 5 years old. We would be inn the kitchen talking about Jesus , oh how he blessed her through the struggles of her life. (meaning no matter how much others or some one that is TRYING to make her feel bad, will not give her the thought of giving up on Jesus! )

The song she taught me was """ Oh how I love Jesus !! ""

That song helped her to make it through the hard day but when she made it home from work, we would sing in the kitchen while her and my grand father would be cooking dinner !1

She would tell me that Jesus came to save us from our sins and also teach us to give humbly to others and show nothing but love to your enemies. He also came to let us know that his heavenly spirit will be with us forever. 

So Christmas is a day to give and be kind with loving care to all.

Sometimes I wonder of God been so mighty and great, why did he let Jesus to come down out of heaven been born. But his miracle with a virgin was the greatest of all for Jesus to be born !.

It would have been a lot better to expect God to open the Heavens and descend to Earth in majesty and power on that first Christmas night, but He didn’t. Instead, on that quiet night in Bethlehem, a virgin mother lay her newborn Baby in a manger designed to feed cattle. The lowing cows, the sweet-smelling hay, and the dark sky illumined by a magnificent star provided the setting. Humble shepherds joined the carpenter husband to witness the miracle and praise God.

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. Luke 2:15

Our God works in mysterious ways. The wheels of His mercy and justice move quietly, but they do move. The birth of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, our Savior, went unnoticed by the vast majority of the world that first Christmas night, but no event in human history was more significant. May His birth and all it means not go unnoticed in our lives!

Don’t miss Jesus this Holiday season! Meditate on His birth. Focus on the astonishing Gift! Share the Word made Flesh with those around you! Keep your eyes open for those seemingly insignificant, humble, “normal” holy moments to share the good news of our Savior’s birth!
