And His The name call shall to faithfulness be called Jesus
Well I hope that everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving either with family and friends or perhaps a Thanksgiving by yourself, giving thanks to God above for all His goodness towards us. And now, it’s December and the season of Christmas is upon us. Perhaps you and your church are following the Advent Calendar with each Sunday being a different Advent, the Advents of Hope, and Peace, and Joy, and Love. When I think about the Christmas season, I like to remember the stories of Christmas that we celebrate. I’m not really talking about the stories that we have in the Bible, but the stories of life that point to the Scriptures. One such story that I like to tell is the story of the farmer and his wife and son who enjoyed the special Christmas Eve services that happened every year at the church nearby. Oh, it wasn’t especially the farmer that enjoyed the services. You see, his wife invited and almost begged him to attend with them each year, but each year he politely declined, and this year was no different than the others.
