Deck the Halls with boughs of Holly!

Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la! It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, all around our house. We are decking our walls, our fireplace and everywhere else with decorations that remind us of Christmas. What is amazing as I undid my decorations were the many reminders that this is Jesus' Birthday! So many manger scenes and scenes of Mary and Joseph and baby Jesus. So many reminders of what this season is all about! My kids eyes glisten at all the lights and presents and get excited about it all.

The tree, as we were putting it up, reminds me that my Lord Jesus who came as a baby in a manger was hung upon a tree for my sins! He rose again and lives for us and intercedes for us. Those of us who believe in Him and His name and repent of our sins. He takes the sin away, makes us new again. Just like my evergreen tree, my life is evergreen and will never die spiritually! Thank you Jesus!
