What better message is there than the announcement that a Savior is born? Jesus lived, died, and rose again. Because He lives, and because I’ve asked Him to be my personal Lord and Savior, my soul is secure for all eternity. No more darkness abides within me; I’ve been flooded with the light of Christ’s mercy.

Let’s pray together that 2023 is the year your dear one will find salvation and be transferred into the kingdom of the Son, who our Father sent to us in love.
