A CHRISTMAS DAY

“For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.”
Luke 2:11 KJV

What is a Christmas day?  It is a day when we not only tell our loved ones we love them; we also show them we love them by our actions.  A dad bought his son an expensive gift for Christmas and a mother bought her daughter an expensive gift and they spent time with their children on Christmas day.

These same parents have almost ignored their children for the rest of the year except to tell them they couldn’t do something or go somewhere.  Where is the love?  We need to show our love every day.  Jesus loves us every day and every day He shows us His love by His kind and loving words and actions.

If we will listen with our heart, we will hear Jesus say to us “I love you”.  The love of our precious Saviour is unconditional and it will never end.  He loved you yesterday.  He loves you today and He will love you forever.  Jesus doesn’t turn His love off and on like a water faucet as we sometime do. 

We read in the Bible.  “The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee” (Jeremiah 31:3).  May God help us to make every day of the year a Christmas day, a day filled with love, kindness, encouragement and caring.

Heavenly Father, You are so kind, loving and giving.  Thank You for opening Your heart to us and giving us the greatest Gift of all, Jesus.  You must really love us to give Your beloved Son to us.  I love You, Heavenly Father.  I love You, Jesus.  I love You, Holy Spirit.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
