what do you want this Christmas?

What I really want this Christmas is a home of my own. Now, while I believe in Miracles, this would be a pretty hard one to pull off. It would be so awesome to see the looks on my kids' faces if they were able to have a bedroom of their own and room enough for their toys.

Well what I want this Christmas is to be able to have some time off from the stresses of everyday work and school.Currently I am in a business course at a community college and that requires a huge dedication and time commitment on my part.I have to get up early every morning in order to get their in time and on top of that I work part time at a retail outlet and get up at 4:30 both Saturday and Sunday. I need the money badly so I will continue to do so until i get a nice job after completing the course next June.

I would love world peace, of course...beside that, my children, my grandchldren, and my dog, are all I need to make it any holiday complete. For Christmas, I wish for those who don't know the Lord, to meet him and come to know his love for us all. Christmas is about Jesus-about love. God's love: He gave his only begotten son so that whoever believes in him might have everlasting life. Mary's love: Growing up in a Jewish household, she would have known the scriptures-the prophecies about her son. She would have heard them over and over. Mary knew what would happen to Jesus; how he would be beaten and mocked. She knew they would nail her son to a cross someday. Can you imagine every time she held that little hand in hers, what she must have felt? Christmas is about Jesus love for us: He came down from heaven, left the splendor there to come and live as one of us, to save us; to die for us. We all celebrate Jesus' birth at Christmas time, the earthly beginning of His life. Let's remember that this was also the new beginning of ours...for any who choose to accept the gift of salvation He brought. Merry Christmas and God bless all.
