Merry Christmas
Submitted by drdownie on Fri, 12/25/2009 - 08:05To all our dear friends and family.
This day of the year, which we choose to celebrate the supernatural event, when God willingly wrapped himself in humanity, to restore the broken personal relationship between Him and all of mankind. I look at part of the Christmas story in Luke 2:8-20 and notice the response from the Angels, Shepherds, Simeon, & Anna. They all praised God for the reality of the prophesied birth of the Messiah, Emmanuel - God with us - Jesus! He was praised in the heavens, in the fields, in the town, and in the temple.

Wondering who will I see at Kingdom Bound this year?
Just finished watching a few episodes of the Revolutionary War on the History Channel. How evident it is, with the overwhelming odds, and all that the Continental Army and Militias suffered through, that the outcome is our United States. God is the one that truely gave us the Independence that we celebrate today! Thank you Lord
