Passion 2013!!!!!!!!!!

     Passion is a great conference for College students.  If you know me I am not a college student.  This conference has been previously live streamed over the internet.  It has not been said if they will live stream it over the internet.  I really hope they will live stream it over the internet because this is a conference worth watching.  It has great worship and great speakers.  Pray for these people who are going and the speakers that will preach the word of God.

The Christmas Story

     What is Christmas about?  Is Christmas about getting presents and Santa Claus?  In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while[a] Quirinius was governor of Syria.) And everyone went to their own town to register.
So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.
And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Saviorhas been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”
13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
14 

“Glory to God in the highest heaven,

    and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”
15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.”
16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
21 On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise the child,he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived.No, Christmas is about the birth of Jesus Christ and without the birth of Jesus Christ there would be no living sacrifice to save us from our sins.  Christmas is very exciting about getting presents, but the number one thing is that Jesus Christ came down to earth to be born in a manger.  The only reason we should really get presents at christmas is because Jesus gave us a awesome git. From now on when you are thinking about Christmas make sure that you think of the reason for the season, Jesus Christ.

Christmas Song I love

    I love this song about a little boy with a rare diagnosis of leukemia.  This whole town surrounded this family and gave this child one last Christmas.  I love this artist, song, and story.  This song shoes how God can do amazing things in little peoples lives and give a child one last Christmas.  This story touched my heart the first time I heard it.  I hope you like this wonderful song.
