Christmas in July
Let's Re-wind
back
to Christmas
and
have
Christmas in July
a tradition that had it's beginnings in July 1933
when a Christmas tree
and gifts were brought
by Santa Claus
to girls at a girls camp in North Carolina.
But why
does Christmas
have to stay in a box
until December
and then brought back
in July for a brief moment?
Christmas~
when
ONCE UPON A TIME
there lived a little girl named Mary
who was knitted together in her mother’s womb
and was fearfully and wonderfully made …
And then
God sent an angel with a
Promise
And then
It happened
One Silent Night~
The Baby is born,
but
not just an ordinary baby..
but
The Baby~
God is with us.
ONCE UPON A TIME
there lived a little girl/boy named
______________(PUT your name)
who was knitted together in
______________'s mother’s womb
and is fearfully and wonderfully made …
And then
God sent a Promise
And then
It happened
One Silent Night
The Baby is born
for you~
Bringing a new beginning
the moment you pick up
The Baby.
Who is This Baby?
Your Baby~
Who will make the one change that changes everything
because
He will change your life forever
and that is a
Merry Christmas
that isn't
just in December
or just in July
because
He is in every season of you life.
As I began writing these morning devotions
on my quest
to answer the question
Who is this Baby?
I found so much more
because
This Baby
has become
so much more
in my heart
and becomes
so much more
as
I continue to
Put Him in My Story
because
This Baby
became a
Man
Who
ONCE UPON ATIME
walked from the manger to the cross
so
He could
walk with
me & you
because
He is
so much more
than just a gift under a tree.
Let's
Re-Wind
back to
December 1
when I asked the questions . . .
Who is this Baby that continues to impact your life
beyond December 25?
In what area of your life are you seeking a change?
Are you ready to bring
Christmas
into July and
make the change now?
Well..
PUT HIM IN YOUR STORY
not just in
December
not just in
July
Because
"A Baby Changes Everything".
in every month
in every day
in every moment . . .
By the way, there are only 157 days until Christmas!
