Merry Christmas! All we have to do is turn to him. Psalm 42:11

Posted on by Just broken

Psalm 42:11 (NLT)
11 Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God!
I will praise him again — my Savior and my God!

Because he delivers. He delivers out of selfless love and all we have to do is turn to him.

Isaiah 9:6 (NLT)
6 For a child is born to us, a son is given to us.
The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Given. A son is given to us. Our redemption is placed in our midst, and all we have to do is turn to him.

Matthew 1:22-23 (NLT)
22 All of this occurred to fulfill the Lord’s message through his prophet:
23 “Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel, which means ‘God is with us.’”

Recorded and witnessed, and all we have to do is turn to him.

Luke 2:14 (NLT)
14 “Glory to God in highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.”

He’s sent his Son for us, he’s done the work on our behalf, and all we have to do is turn to him.

As we are blessed with the awesome gifts of the first world – housing, food, safety, presents, etc., riches that are hard to comprehend, take time to consider the blessing that we’ve been given by the creator of all of this.

And for the biggest blessing of all, all we have to do is turn to him.

May your Christmas be blessed with love, joy, hope, and peace.

I Love The Father, Son and Holy Spirit and the blessings He has poured into my life. I pray that I live a life that glorifies Him in all I do, but I fail every day, many, many, many times. I have come here through brokenness, a trail of pain and broken promises that I've created through my self centeredness, self will and arrogance. For those I've hurt, please forgive me for what I did. Those things that I remember I am truly sorry I did them. I wish I could undo them. I can't. I use these lessons as motivation to be a builder, to take those experiences and hopefully keep someone else out of their own similar experiences. I love my wife, my children, my family, my friends, my strangers, and those the world would like to dismiss as an unfortunate error messing up worldly perfection. I get frustrated with all of the above too, for I am broken, not like God. Lord, give me your wisdom, your patience, and knowledge of your will for me and the strength to carry that out in all I do. I believe we have work to do while we are here and need to be actively engaged in allowing God to work through us. A Christian is someone who does what The Father, Son and Holy Spirit calls them to do, a builder not a taker, a conduit not a pinnacle, humble and serving. Micah 6:8 Matthew 25:31-46
