! ! ! It’s Christmas ! ! !
Have you been to Jesus ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Have you been to Jesus
— at His birth to worship Him ?
— at His miracles to thank Him ?
— at His compassion to love Him ?
— at His sermons to learn from Him ?
— at His solitary place to pray with Him ?
— at His cross to repent, give your sin to Him ?
— at His empty grave to celebrate victory with Him ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Because He lives I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives all fear is gone.
Because I know He holds my future,
My life is worth the living
Just because He lives.”
