I hope all of you are having a very merry Christmas. I have gotten a wallet and gift card so far from my mom and step dad. I am growing closer and closer to my Beloved Jesus lately. And I know it's just the beginning of how close Him and I will become. There are a few people I want to be with right now that I can't be with. My grandma and grandpa I can not be with because they have gone to a better place. My very close friend Steven I can not be with because he has a family he must spend time with, too. And my friend Mandy I can not be with because she lives in Minnesota. However, they are all on my heart, so, therefore, they are here in spirit. <3 I miss all of them terribly the same but I know I will see all of them at some point in the future. Just remember that Christmas is not about gifts, but about giving. It is not about receiving, but buying for others. It is not about selfishness, but about self-sacrifice. I pray now, in Jesus name, that all of my friends have a very blessed Christmas and that nothing harms them or their loved ones in any way. I pray against the enemy's schemes in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. - Matthew 1:18 (NKJV)

But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. - Matthew 1:20 (NKJV)

"And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins." - Matthew 1:21 (NKJV)

For Christmas is and should be recognized as the remembrance of the birth of the Son of the living God, Jesus Christ, and that it should be a day centered and induced with Love.

Love you all, †dusk†
