Hello everyone! Though I haven't posted in approximately 2 weeks, I finally decided to post today and wish you all a very merry Christmas! In the midst of all the craziness, shopping, and frantically wrapping presents, don't forget the reason we celebrate Christmas! Yes, I know that we celebrate Jesus year round, but Christmas is the day we celebrate when He came into the world as a little baby boy. When He put on the flesh of humans, and decided to come down and grow up like us small people so that one day He could die on the Cross to take away the sins of the world.
The other day I was listening to a local Christian station, and one of the Christmas songs they played was, "He Made a Way in a Manger." I immediately fell in love with the song, if that's possible.

Longing for a Savior
A hopeless world would wait
Sin demanded justice
At a price we could not pay;
But God displayed his mercy
The greatest gift of love
When we could not reach heaven
Heaven came to us.

He made a way in a manger
A way to the cross
Messiah the promised
Before time had begun;
For God so loved this world
Though he knew what love would cost
He made a way in a manger
To make a way to the cross

In Bethlehem a stable
Became a throne of grace
As God himself our Savior
Drew near to take our place;
His mother smiled in wonder
As shepherds stood in awe
The sacrifice of heaven
Lay sleeping in the straw.

He is the life that died our death
The precious Lord Jesus
Laid down his sweet head

Thank you for taking the time to read this blog! Merry Christmas everyone! Enjoy this beautiful time of year and make sure you let all of the people in your life know how much you love them!=)
