“And she will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for it is He who will who will save His people from their sins.”
Matthew 1:21.
And “His people” are all those who believe in Him, believe that He is the only Son of God, very God and very man, that He came to earth, was a vicarious atonement for our sins, the Word of God, and who call upon His name.
Merry Christmas 2018!

Merry Christmas, Herschel.
All good wishes.
He is born! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Merry Christmas to you and yours, Captain Smith!
Merry Christmas, Sir.
The Maid-Servant At The Inn
“It’s queer,” she said; “I see the light

As plain as I beheld it then,

All silver-like and calm and bright-
We’ve not had stars like that again!


“And she was such a gentle thing
To birth a baby in the cold.

The barn was dark and frightening-

This new one’s better than the old.
“I mind my eyes were full of tears,

For I was young, and quick distressed,

But she was less than me in years

That held a son against her breast.


“I never saw a sweeter child
-
The little one, the darling one!-
I mind I told her, when he smiled

You’d know he was his mother’s son.


“It’s queer that I should see them so-

The time they came to Bethlehem

Was more than thirty years ago;
I’ve prayed that all is well with them.”
Dorothy Parker
