God Created The Heavens And The Earth

The True Celebration Of Christmas Is When We Ponder Afresh The Grace Of God Who Became Human, Entered History Through A Virgin's Womb, And Brought Redemption To The World.

When We Gather For Worship, Whether With A Handful In A Storefront Chapel Or With Thousands In St. Peter's Square, We Perform A Drama With Different Parts-speaking And Singing And Praying And Giving Money And Baptizing And Eating Bread And Drinking Wine-all For The Delight Of God.

First, Forgive. Second, Forget By Choosing Not To Dwell On That Which Is Forgiven And In The Past. We Have No Right To Keep In Front Of Us What God Has Put Behind Him.

Do We Approach God From A Beggar's Perspective Or As His Cherished Child? If We Have Any Difficulty Seeing Him As Our Loving Father, We Need To Ask Him To Help Us Develop A Healthy Father/child Relationship.

Before You Begin Your Journey Toward Integrity, You Need To Determine Your Starting Point. In Other Words, What's Your Integrity Quotient? How Much Integrity Do You Have? Do A Moral Inventory Of Yourself. Hold Yourself Accountable Going Forward For What You Say And Do. Moving Toward A More Faithful, Fair, And Honest Life Begins With Confronting Truthfully Who You Are. You Can't Hold Yourself Accountable If You Won't See Yourself Clearly.
