What Are You Doing The Other 364 Days In The Year ... Are You Magnifying and Celebrating The Savior Every Day?

There are 365 days in a year and today is the day that the world celebrates as Christmas.   The question is, what are you doing the other 364 days in the year.   Are you walking in faith or are you abiding in fear?   Are you lifting Jesus up or are you magnifying your problems?    Are you giving the gift of love or are people around you constantly feeling your hurt, pain, and disappointment.    We have to understand that Christ did not come for one day.   The whole purpose behind the birth of Christ is for us to have eternal life.  

Let's not get caught up in the one day celebration.   Let's understand that every day is a gift.   Every day is filled with God's love, grace, and mercy.   Every day is an opportunity that we have been given to reflect who God is and to share what He has done in our lives.   Again, the question is, what are we doing with each day we have been given.

God's love is unending.   It surpasses all we could ever hope for and it never changes.   God doesn't love us one day and hate us the next.   His love looks beyond our sin and it covers us, keeps us, shields us, and protect us.

It was because of God's love for us that He sent His Son to die for us.   There is no greater love and there is no greater gift that have ever or will ever be given.    We should make sure that our celebration of Christ goes beyond one day in the year.    Every day that we live, breathe, and have our being, should be a celebration of who Christ is and what He has done for us.

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION 
 Isaiah 9:6
King James Version (KJV)

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
