Christmas Should be Everday

'Christmas should be everyday'. I think it's a good thing we don't know when Jesus' birth actually was, otherwise, we'd lose the reason of why we celebrate what we call Christmas. We'd be celebrating His birth (which isn't bad), but only just His birth, and not the WHY of His birth. We'd celebrate the WHAT, but forget the WHY. Each and everyday should be a reminder and a celebration of what He's given to us. Life, His Love, His freedom, and unending mercy and grace. He's given us a gift every day, and we need to accept it, just like if we got presents everyday. Therefore, Christmas IS EVERY DAY. =)

God is Faithful

Again you see those dark rain clouds
They bring you nothing but pain
It’s almost as they’re going to smother you,
But there’s always someone to pull you through.

All around you the fog closes in,
The brightness of the light, covered
Yet that light has never left you,
And it’s always there, thought it may be hard to see.

Blue skies are always there
The sun never stops its glowing
Though it may seem that all good has disappeared
God’s faithfulness is always there

No darkness can hide it,
No storm can overcome it
No sin can conquer it,
And death itself could not stop it.

Surely as the new day comes again
God is faithful.
