December 25

“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon His shoulder; and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6

As we wake on this Christmas morning and prepare to open presents and spend the day with family, let us take a moment to focus on our precious Lord. It has become a cliché, but Jesus really is the reason for the season. May we never lose sight of that. I love this old song by Larnelle Harris. I encourage you to look it up on You Tube and sing along.

“More Than Wonderful”

He promised us that He would be a counselor A Mighty God and the Prince of Peace He promised us that He would be a Father And that He would love us with a love that would not cease.

Well, I tried Him, and I found His promises are true He's everything He said that He would be. The finest words I know could not begin to tell Just what Jesus really means to me.

For He's more wonderful than my mind can conceive He's more wonderful than my heart can believe He goes beyond my highest hopes and fondest dreams. He's everything that my soul ever longed for Everything He's promised and so much more More than amazing, more than marvelous More than miraculous could ever be He's more than wonderful, that's what Jesus is to me.

I stand amazed when I think the King of glory Should come to dwell within the heart of man I marvel just to know He really loves me When I think of who He is, and who I am.

For He's more wonderful than my mind can conceive He's more wonderful than my heart can believe He goes beyond my highest hopes and fondest dreams. He's everything that my soul ever longed for Everything He's promised and so much more More than amazing, more than marvelous, More than miraculous could ever be He's more than wonderful, that's what Jesus is to me.
