JESUS, THE REASON AND PURPOSE OF CHRISTMAS 12-6-18

-




Christmas.
A celebration of the birth of Christ.
This is a season of joy, love and celebration!
It is also a time of stress, loneliness and confusion.
Some worry over the importance of getting the right presents for particular people, spending more than your finances will allow and thus, many are thrown into a whirlwind of commercialism that society endorses.
In these times of loneliness and this culture of commercialism, I think about Jesus.
Then I pray!
Jesus, God, who came to Earth feeling what it was to be totally human, like us, to save us is the purpose and reason of Christmas.
I know that this society of Christmas commercialism is something that angers God.
Being kind, loving and especially reaching out to others, especially spending time with the sick, the forgotten, the lonely, the distraught, the vulnerable and the troubled is, to me, the genuine and real meaning of Christmas!
Reaching out and spending time, this Christmas, with others, especially those who are not as fortunate as I am, especially the sick and whom I previously mentioned, is the plan I’m forecasting for myself on Christmas!
God, though, may have other plans for me this Christmas.
God, whatever your purpose for me on Christmas and every day of my life, I ready and willing to surrender to Your Will!
With sincerity, love and prayers for everyone to have a blessed Christmas,

Serious Problems That Circulate Among The Medical Profession There have been countless advances in the medical field. These fascinating evolutions have saved my life and the lives of countless others! These medical miracles have improved the lives of multitudes and have also created paths of wellness in the lives an infinite number of others! Though this is fascinating news and it all benefits humankind, there are serious problems in the presentation of medical treatment.
