Well tonight is the big night and tomorrow the big day.
Little Saint Nick traveling the world on his sleigh.
But don't forget that it is really Jesus' Birthday.
The true meaning of Christmas, that Christ came from above,
To show the world his grace and Unconditional love.
Remember this tomorrow when you open your gifts,
That Our Savior came here and paid the ultimate price.
Just so you can have eternal life.

Christmas Time.
I officially went on my first christmas light drive. It may have only been one house but it means it is that time of the year! What a great time. Oh and my camera came, It is AMAZING!
So Last night at switch we talked about the Christmas story. I learned so much. Did you know the wise man weren't there at the manger.... Kind of funny that every nativity scene has them.
But three things really stood out to me last night.
1) The fact that Elizabeth had John, I mean she was like 70 years old that's Impossible right?
But Nothing is impossible for God. (Luke 1:37) Amen To that. Just as Mary, a virgin, gave birth to the savior. Crazy Stuff. It just goes to show you that not only can God do anything but he will also use whoever he chooses. (Be ready to be used!)
2) Where Jesus was born. Did you know that this "manger" was a feeding troph for the animals? Imagine that our Savior was born in a farm animal infested barn that had poop everywhere and his first bed was a feeding Troph. Yeah, that is how much God loves you. He will go deep amongst the dirt for your salvation, so don't ever believe that his grace is not powerful enough to save you from eternal separation. He Loves You!
3) It gets better. When Jesus was born, King Herod found out that a so called "king" was born. So what did he do? He killed all the male babies in the vicinity of Bethlehem!!!! God knew this and told Mary and Joseph to flee to Egypt with baby Jesus until he called them back home. So from the very Get-go our savior was threatened of Death. Yes you are that important. Remember that Our God Is Mighty to Save!

Waiting.
No School Today!
So my camera is supposed to come today via UPS. It actually came yesterday but no one was there to sign for it!!! Can you believe that? Lame.
But I am excited for the rest of the day. I am going out to lunch with Jake. He leaves for Illinois tomorrow and we have to do our question of the week.
Every week I have one or more questions about the bible and such. Jake has been super helpful in answering these just proving more and more how Amazing God is.
So for today remember that. We serve an amazing God! Be Thankful For His grace.
Good Day.

And So It Begins.
I have officially made a blogspot.
Why You ask, because i just now how interested all of you are in what i have to say!
Ok maybe a little cheesy, but i have wanted one ever since Adam made one like 4 years ago, so here i go.
I plan to use it to express my thoughts on certain things and keep everyone posted on what goes on in between my ears day by day.
Excited Yet?
So tonight I am Preaching it up at small group, Revelation 21 will be the words of the night. It basically goes over what our home is going to be like after this life, It is definitely a lot more encouraging than I expected it to be.. The Power of the Word!
I guess that is a great way to sum it all up.
Have an amazing week humanity!
