Happy Birthday, Jesus!


One of the traditions we have as a family is to make a birthday cake for Jesus as part of our Christmas celebration. Singing happy birthday to Jesus is a wonderful way to focus on the meaning of Christmas. It's simple traditions like this that keep the purpose of Christmas in focus.

For the culture around us it is a frantic time of buying gifts, putting up trees, decorating the house with lights and a hundred other distractions, but the real meaning of the day is all about God's love for us.

This day, Christmas, is a celebration of God's love for me! God loved us so much that he gave his very best gift, his son, to provide salvation for each of us.

In the busy days of these holidays make sure you celebrate the best gift....God's son given for us.
