Happy Birthday Jesus

It is Christmas.....
The table loaded with cookies, cakes and candies. and  there will be more than we could ever eat.
The pine big tree shining so bright with beautiful decorations and pretty shiny
lights. And under that tree there are gift galore.

My thoughts go back to a cold night long time ago, to a couple who were exhausted and have no place to rest, to a baby in a manger. There was no fancy food on table, no pine tree with decorations and shiny light. But the star shown on a miracle - the coming to earth of God in human form who changed the entire world with His message of love, forgiveness, humility and peace.

and my question is What if Jesus was not born?
So this Christmas, let's all take a different approach:
With God's gift, the best one of all, Our sweet Jesus, our Savior, our Lord.

Dear Jesus,
We thank You for being here with us, as we celebrate this cherished holiday
to honor Your precious sacred birth.
We recognize and acknowledge that all the material pleasures we enjoy today,
the food, the gifts, and everything else come from You, through your grace, your compassion, and Your love for us. Amen
