As we look out over the horizon of this new year, I probably don't need to remind you that none of us knows what tomorrow holds. This is why it is so important to keep our eyes focused on our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I want to share a New Year message for church members and attendees!
Most of us have either purchased a new car or at least taken a ride in a brand-new vehicle with the “new smell” still fully intact. Yet, it doesn't take too long for the “new” to become “old” or at least that feeling of new.
There's a powerful scripture in the Bible that I believe is still relevant in this day and age we live.
I want to take this opportunity to wish you and yours a Merry Christmas and be sure to invite you to Services here at (NAME OF CHURCH).
We often hear the words spoken or sung about being “home for Christmas.” These words can bring great comfort to the heart as so many of us think of Christmas gatherings with friends and loved ones that were a great blessing.
Yet, I want to take that further and invite you and your loved ones to attend your “Church Home” for Christmas services. I realize so many of you are already planning to join us, but perhaps some are considering other activities during this busy time of year.
What an exciting day to gather together as the family of God! While many of us will join family later in the day or even after church, I can't think of a better time to be with fellow believers in Christ!
Just think… on that Christmas morning over 2,000 years ago were just two people who had been given shelter in a stable because there was no room for them in the inn. Yet, soon that number would increase to three as Jesus was born just like the angel said He would be! Prophecies were fulfilled, and the Savior of the world had arrived!
One of the most enjoyable things we can do during this time is to gather together to sing Christmas Carols!
I invite you and your loved ones to join us as we do our best to spread Christmas cheer as we minister in song.
You don't have to be an official “singer,” but bring your best smile along and be ready to share the love of Jesus Christ with people who need to hear this message of hope!
Here we are again at the beginning of another year, and there's been a thought in my mind that may seem simple, yet it's a powerful truth; “New Year, Same God”!
That brief statement reminds me of the beautiful scripture in Hebrews 13:8 (NKJV) Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
With changes coming at us so quickly, it's wonderful to know God never changes! God doesn't “adapt” to the times. The Word doesn't change according to cultural pressures. God doesn't need to run for political office because He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords!
