Day 3: Wrapped In His Promise


I MISSED it.

I MISSED my extra early wake up date with GOD,

as I just woke up now.

But did I really MISS HIM,

because I am meeting with HIM at a later time.

Or did GOD just BLESS me with extra sleep,

because I was so filled with

THE PEACE that transcends understanding

and

HIS UNSPEAKABLE JOY

because of

HIS EVERLASTING LOVE

that was

SWADDLED around THE BABY JESUS

and then

WRAPPED around JESUS THE MAN

and then

SWADDLED around the BURIED JESUS

and then

LEFT BEHIND

to let us all know

that

JESUS IS COMING BACK!

Because

THE BABY JESUS

was

DELIVERED into this world

to

DELIVER

you

&

me

&

everyone else.

All because

GOD made

A PROMISE

that lasts

FOREVER,

because

GOD ALWAYS KEEPS HIS PROMISES

and

A PROMISE IS A PROMISE FROM THE ONE MAKING THE PROMISE.

So why am I experiencing

HIS REAL PEACE

that transcends all understanding?

Because

JESUS IS HERE.

HE IS IMMANUEL.

GOD IS WITH US.

Oh how I know

that

GOD IS HERE

because,

yesterday HE blew my socks off,

even though I don't even wear socks.

But when you have a room

filled with

women who you have known

and

women who you just met for the first time,

because they

ANSWERED an INVITATION

to

experience the

REAL GIFT OF CHRISTMAS

that is all

WRAPPED in

THE BABY who is

REAL HOPE

REAL PEACE

REAL JOY

REAL LOVE,

you can not

not be

OVERWHELMED

by

THE LOVE OF GOD.

Oh my HEART IS FULL,

because there is nothing better than to

experience

HEAVEN ON EARTH.

Because when 2 or more are gathered,

you better watch out

because

there is no stopping the

JOY OF THE LORD

to overtake your

HEARTS,

because

there is no stopping

GOD.

I bet OUR FATHER

was just chuckling yesterday

seeing

HIS DAUGHTERS

LOVING HIS JESUS.

OUR JESUS

who is

THE GIFT THAT KEEPS GIVING

and who

NEVER STOPS

bringing

HIS REAL HOPE into despair,

HIS REAL PEACE into anxiety,

HIS REAL JOY into fear,

all

because of

HIS REAL LOVE

that sent HIM in the first place,

to a little stable in

BETHLEHEM,

on that one SILENT NIGHT ,

where HE was lying in a manger.

And oh how the angels

were

HARKING

GLORY TO THE NEW BORN KING!

Oh the

JOY OF CHRISTMAS

that

DELIVERED A BABY on earth

so

HE WILL DELIVER you!

So thank you to all the women

who came to spend the day with all of us,

to enjoy

our

JESUS

together!!

May you all

open the

GIFT OF CHRISTMAS

that is for everyone~

"For GOD SO LOVED that the world that

HE GAVE HIS ONE AND ONLY SON,

that WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM

SHALL NOT PERISH

but

HAVE ETERNAL LIFE" (John 3:16).

For ETERNITY begins now,

because

WHO IS THIS BABY?

HE IS YOURS AND MINE AND EVERYONES,

"ALL BECAUSE OF BETHLEHEM"
