Christmas Perspective

This is certainly a very busy time of year, and I have been guilty of letting that keep me from reading and writing.  I'll try to do better.  I only have a few minutes right now, but I want to share with you a Scripture my pastor shared (in light of the Christmas season) this past Sunday night:

      "For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty ye might be rich."
~ The Apostle Paul (II Corinthians 8:9 KJV)

What a powerful verse!  He had everything and willingly gave it up, so that WE could have EVERYTHING...  I can't emphasize enough each of these words.  I could probably talk a good bit about each word and phrase in this verse.  Just think on it for a while. 
And have a wonderful, Christ filled Christmas season!
