Christmas is a wonderful time of the year to reflect on Christ and what He has done for us.

A perfect time at the end of the year to stop and remember what truly matters… having Christ in our life as Lord and Savior. No matter how good or how difficult the year might have been, we can celebrate the fact that Jesus Christ is our HOPE and our SALVATION.

He came to earth as a man so that He could live among us.

He came to earth as a man so that He could die for us.

IN CHRIST ALONE…

“In Christ alone my HOPE is found; He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, my SONG; this Cornerstone, this solid ground, firm through the fiercest drought and storm. What heights of love, what depths of peace, when fears are stilled, when strivings cease; my Comforter, my ALL in All; here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone who took on flesh; fullness of God in helpless babe. This gift of love and righteousness scorned by the ones He came to save; ’til on that cross as Jesus dies the wrath of God was satisfied; for every sin on Him was laid; here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay; LIGHT of the world by darkness slain. Then bursting forth in glorious day, up from the grave He rose again! And as He stands in victory, sin’s curse has lost its grip on  me; for I AM HIS AND HE IS MINE, bought with the precious blood of Christ!

No guilt in life, no fear in death; this is the power of  Christ in me. From life’s first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny. No power of hell, no scheme of man can ever pluck me from His hand; ’til He returns of calls me home, here in the power of Christ I’ll stand.”

I pray that you can sing the powerful words to the song above and know the PEACE and the POWER of having Jesus in your life. If you do not know Him, you can! He is waiting for you with open arms of love. Ask Him today to forgive you of your sins and be your Lord and Savior. Experience true HOPE which cannot come from anything or anywhere else.

Start the New Year with Christ!
