"Celebrate Winter"
Good morning friends,
Please read Psalm 42
Why are you cast
down, O my soul?
...Hope in God, for
I shall yet praise Him
for the help of His
contenance. Psalm 42:5
If ir weren't for the reality of Christ's birth, not only would winter be dark and dreary, but our hearts would be bleak and have nothing to hope for. No hope for the freedom from guilt and judgement. No hope of His reassuring and strengthening presence through dark and difficult times. No hope for a future secured in heaven. In the winter of a troubled life, the psalmist asked, "Why are you cast down, O my soul?" the remedy was clear in verse Psalm 42:5. For those of us who know God who made the seasons, it is always Christmas in our hearts!
When our lives are heavy laden,
Cold and bleak as winter long,
Stir the embers in our hearts, Lord;
Make your flame burn bright and strong.
Let the reality of Christmas chase away the blahs of winter.
God Bless.
Miss Kitty
