​Pastor' Thoughts - December​

​

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government
will be on his shoulders. And he will be called, Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6

Advent is here! I hope you have gotten the advent devotion
calendar from the church. I pray it helps you to focus on the watching
and the waiting of the birth of Jesus. Isaiah prophesied the birth of Christ, and we are watching and waiting to celebrate his birth in 2025. Think of the years between the prophecy and today. Life is different yet there is “nothing new under the sun”.

Christmas is about our Savior being born into a fallen world to bring redemption and a way back to our Father in heaven. It is not always a happy time for some. People who have lost loved ones, sickness, seasons in life changing and so much more many people suffer with. However, we find joy, hope, love and peace in Jesus when our focus is on Him.

As we journey together during this Advent let us draw closer to
Jesus and focus on what is really important. Our relationship with God,
Jesus and the Holy Spirit. I wish you all joy, hope, love and peace during
this Advent season!

Blessings,
Pastor Stephanie and Jack
