Psalms 95:2 (NIV) says; Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song.

What a wonderful time of the year it is when we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
As with any year, we enter this season with it's own set of unique challenges and events, yet we know Christ is still the same “yesterday, today, and forever”.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Smith:
There is no other day of the year that holds the significance of what we celebrate on Easter Sunday – the resurrection of Jesus Christ our Savior. It was a day of joy and celebration then and it is a day of joy and celebration now. What we celebrated then is what we continue to celebrate today – that we serve a risen Lord.
Dear
A spirit of thankfulness will take us far in helping us to appreciate the little things around us, as well as those things we might consider “bigger blessings”. It's amazing to think that everything that comes into our lives first of all is sifted through the loving hands of our Heavenly Father!
