Christmas time is a great time…the lights, colors, decorations and yes…I like a white Christmas.  And of course with Christmas, gifts are to some (especially children) the best part.

God loves to give gifts as well!  The greatest gift He gave was first…the reason for the season…His son Jesus!  Through Jesus we can be saved, healed, and restored.  Also through His greatest gift He gives additional gifts!  1 Corinthians 12:8-10 tells us of the gifts of the Holy Spirit (wisdom-knowledge-faith-healing-miracles-prophecy-discerning of spirits-tongues-interpretation of tongues), and Galatians 5:22-23 tells us the fruit of the Holy Spirit (love-joy-peace-patience-kindness-goodness-faithfulness-gentleness-self control).

Through these you will find true hope and joy in this life…and these gifts never break, wear out, or become old.  These are gifts that last and keep on giving!  For Christmas this year I pray that you receive all that God wants to give you.

In love and prayer,

Pastor Lance
