Day 13: It’s Christmas Day! Merry Christmas to you! Let us be thankful to God that a day has been set aside to recognize and remember that our Savior Jesus was born! Hallelujah! I invite you to join with me in giving Him praise, as we, who believe in Him, come together to celebrate this Great Virgin Birth of our LORD, who brought Salvation to the world!

Thank you, and thank you again for celebrating Jesus with me. I pray this few posts have been an inspiration for you to continue to lift the name of Jesus. I have provided thirteen magnificent reasons in which I felt was inspired by the Holy Spirit to share to celebrate Jesus. And there are so many more reasons to do so! As I’m still inviting you to pray and meditate on God’s most Holy Word daily, I hope you too will discover and appreciate the depths of why Jesus deserves to be celebrated until His return. Now… that’s a mighty great reason to celebrate Jesus this season, and always!

She will bear a son,

and you shall call his name Jesus,

for he will save his people from their sins.”

As I come to a close of this segment, I would like to share with you a celebratory poem I wrote in honor of the Birth of Jesus

We celebrate that God sent His Son to the earth

By way of The Virgin Birth.

He was born to seek and to save the lost,

As He was headed to suffer and die on the Cross.

We celebrate Jesus who deserves honor worldwide,

Who came in humility,

Not with worldly puffed up pride.

Hopefully, you will continue to celebrate Jesus

this season and always,

Thanking God that Jesus was born and still lives to save.

May the blessings of the Lord be with you always!

Merry Christmas!
