Daily journal December 25, 2001, To hear the music of Christmas and see the lights, feel the joy of the atmosphere charged with the recognition that the Christ child was born and that he lives in our hearts today. To see the decorations and all the gifts so neatly wrapped with bright colors. To know the true meaning of Christmas, the savior was born sent from God 2000 years ago that fulfilled His purpose on earth and return to heaven and is coming again soon, I believe. The Christmas tree so decorated with delightful ornaments and then compare it to the tree of life in the Book of Revelation and in the beginning in the Book of Genesis. To believe the Lord is Christ our savior and be saved is wonderful and is smart. I am bound for the promised land and I shall not look back to desire earthly things. I will paint the eternal message of the bright morning star that shines in heavenly glory to light the universe. I know there is a God in heaven and I praise him with all my heart. God is all encompassing and if we know Him, we have supernatural power without any need for any substitute whatsoever. He is my provider of health, wealth and satisfaction. The Lord God of Heaven gives me peace and satisfaction. He is all I need and He is all this world needs to be happy and content. If we know God in the right way, then we are complete.

We must surrender all of our greed, all of our self will and all that we have to Him and leave this world behind with its filth and degradation. Our Lord has power to heal and set free all that will surrender to Him. The gospel of Christ is recorded in four books of the New Testament, Mathew, Mark, Luke and John and there is no doubt about the facts of his life and death as a sacrifice for our sin. The coming of (Yesu) Christ the Messiah was predicted by most every Old Testament Prophet and he is the Divine Son of God and He is God. We are involved in an endless war and not against an invisible enemy as Ben Laden, but against the devil himself instilled in the minds of a billion people in the world and more who seek to destroy the people of the true and living God and all of those that bears the name Christian. This war has gone on for more than 1200 years and it is only one of the many enemies of God on earth created by the devil in his imitation of God. We have seen challenging times in the last three months when the great city was destroyed by "ravenous birds" from a far country as the prophet Isaiah predicted in the Old Testament 46-11. We are seeing the judgment of God come down upon us in these last days of his mercy and grace extended to us still. Let us renew our strength and courage to go forth in God's service in all obedience to his will to accomplish a model Christian life for the final hour when he comes to end the battle and cause peace to rein on earth 1000 years and forever.

Rejoice ye in that hope of eternal life with Christ where there will be no night, for He is the light forever. There will be no sickness, suffering or death, no pain or sadness. We will stand before God’s Throne and enjoy the tree of life to see and feel the living waters flowing out pure and clean from his holiness. Let nothing defile us or prevent us from this great experience with the Lord. It is the bottom-line. This is all that's important in service to the Master. Give us that faith Lord to overcome all temptation and be free of all vices.

Mathew 1-23 "Behold a Virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us". Let us worship Christ of the Bible and be saved by faith in Him who is divinely worthy of all our praise.

Let us give in the spirit of Christ and give more, let us give it all as Christ gave His all. I will give so long as I have to give as Christ gives to me. Give Love. Give peace. Give hope. Give mercy. Be charitable. Give truth and right. Do good unto all people. Do the will of our Heavenly Father and live in peace with all people, this is the Christian way.
