A Few Christmas Wishes From The Team…

My Christmas wish for you would be that you wouldn’t gain too much weight over the holiday season and whatever you gain would melt away on January first! 🙂  I pray you make new memories and traditions this Christmas! And if this time of the year is painful or holds sorrow for you, then my hope is that the love, which comes from our great Comforter, would overpower your sorrow and make Him even more present in your life. Lastly, I hope you have a mind blowing, unpredictable, and totally breathtaking New Year, where the Holy Spirit draws you into a deeper waters with our Amazing King!
Merry Christmas friends, thanks for sharing your life with us!

I wish that the Spirit of the Lord would descend upon every heart and home, in the United States and abroad, to show them the peace and love of our Savior.  I wish that the Spirit would topple enemies of Jesus Christ, bringing them to their knees in revelation and adoration.  I wish for each Christian to feel and understand that the Lord’s love truly IS enough.  And finally…I wish for the body of Christ to cease all self-destruction, and finally embrace each other as one – for as one body, we are more powerful than any storm.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, take the time to be still and reflect on the true beauty that is “Christ” mas. Ponder the redemption story that begins not as most had expected with a mighty King warrior, but with an innocent baby in an unimpressive place. Consider God’s plan to use the humble and the willing, to change the course of history and our eternity. Marvel at our God, who works in our lives even today, in ways that we seldom expect, but with a precise and unwavering command. What a beautiful God we serve! Rejoice!
Merry Christmas!

 My Christmas wish for the community is to see more marriages healed and restored. For marriages to thrive. For the couples who are struggling and giving up on each other to rediscover their love and their promise to one another. That couples would stop fighting one another and start fighting for one another. That their fight will not only strengthen their relationship with one another, but strengthen their families, their children and the community as a whole.

 As we focus on the advent season and wait earnestly for Christmas, the celebration of the birth of our savior, I would like to wish all of you joy and the ability to share your joy with others. Finding joy in my life every day is fundamental in my pursuit to welcome God further into my life. When I share my joy with those around me, I know that God is using me as vessel to introduce Him into the lives of others. Merry Christmas and much joy in the New Year!
“I myself have gained much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because your kindness has so often refreshed the hearts of God’s people.”  Philemon 1:7
