THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL

As we know Christmas is already here and everybody wants to buy presents for their loved ones and friends. Therefore we get involved in this frenzy world of materialism and commercialism and we forgot  the real meaning of Christmas which is the celebration of Jesus birthday. Now I am going to tell you how Jesus was born.

JESUS IS BORN
Matthew 1:18-2:12
Luke 1:26--2:20

One day an angel came to visit Mary. He said "Rejoice, the Lord is with you". "Blessed are you among women."
His words worried Mary. She wondered what they meant."Do not be afraid, Mary," the angel said. "You will bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS. he will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest."

The angel also told Mary that her cousin Elizabeth would have a baby, too. When she heard that amazing news, She hurried to Elizabeth's house. When Elizabeth heard Mary's voice, her baby jumped for joy.
"Blessed are you among women," Elizabeth said to Mary.

The Roman emperor, Caesar Augustus, made a rule. He said all people had to return to their hometowns to be counted. This was for a worldwide census. Joseph, the man who was going to marry Mary, both were from Bethlehem. So they returned there even though her baby was due soon.

When they got to Bethlehem, it was full of people being counted for the census. All the rooms in the inn were taken and they had to sleep in the stable. That night their baby was born, and they laid Him in a manger.
Later that night some shepherds visited them. They told them an amazing story. While they were watching their sheep, a shining angel suddenly stood right in front of them. The shepherds were very afraid.
Then the angel said "Do not be afraid, for behold , I bring you good tidings of great joy. There is born to you this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord".
Soon the angel was joined by many more angels. They all said, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace."
Mary pondered these things in her heart.

THINK ABOUT THIS
Jesus is King, yet He was not born in a palace. He was born in a stable among animals. His first bed was a feeding trough. And God planned it that way!
Jesus' lowly start in life showed that He came for everyone. He came for the poor as well as the rich.
and Jesus is the GREATEST GIFT OF ALL.
