Wishing everyone a MERRY CHRISTMAS! As we enjoy this time with family and friends, we should keep our military men and women - especially those deployed to foreign lands - in our thoughts and prayers. We owe them so much for the freedoms we enjoy, as we do our veterans who have served before. Many thanks to all of them!

“That We Mattered To You As You Mattered To Us”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfp07-9YsKY
On This Christmas Eve and Every Single Day of the Year, To All Our Brave Men and Women Serving All Over The World, Please Know That You Matter To Us So Very Much!
On this Christmas Eve, and every night, please say a prayer for our Brave Warriors and their families. Until we provide to our Warriors a Commander-in-Chief worthy of leading them, I have resigned myself to the belief that the best way we can help and protect our most noble men and women is to pray for them.
And every chance you get, hug our Warriors and let them know that they MATTER TO YOU JUST AS MUCH AS WE MATTER TO THEM!
Merry Christmas To All Our Brave Men & Women & May God Keep you Safe Until You All Come Home!
My Special Thanks to LCDR Jeff Gilles for this beautiful poem!

A Fragile Gift
December 25, 2015
Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!
2 Corinthians 9:15
When we give a fragile gift, we make sure it is marked on the box that contains it. The word fragile is written with big letters because we donât want anyone to damage what is inside.
Godâs gift to us came in the most fragile package: a baby. Sometimes we imagine Christmas day as a beautiful scene on a postcard, but any mother can tell you it wasnât so. Mary was tired, probably insecure. It was her first child, and He was born in the most unsanitary conditions. She âwrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the innâ (Luke 2:7 nkjv).
A baby needs constant care. Babies cry, eat, sleep, and depend on their caregivers. They cannot make decisions. In Maryâs day, infant mortality was high, and mothers often died in childbirth.
Why did God choose such a fragile way to send His Son to earth? Because Jesus had to be like us in order to save us. Godâs greatest gift came in the fragile body of a baby, but God took the risk because He loves us. Let us be thankful today for such a gift!
Dear Lord, the Strong and Mighty One, I thank You for becoming small and fragile on that day long ago. It amazes me that You did that for me and the rest of Your world.
May you know the peace of Christmas every day of the year.
The New Bible Commentary explains the census described in Luke 2: âDuring the reign of Augustus (31 bcâad 14) the Romans reorganized their administration in several parts of the Empire and carried out fresh censuses of the population for the purpose of taxation. The execution of such an imperial decree in Syria (of which Judea formed a part) brought Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem, long ago prophesied as the Messiahâs place of birth. The fact that Mary travelled with Joseph means that they were now married, but the description of her as [pledged to be married] (v. 5) to him . . . shows that they had not yet consummated the marriage (cf. Mt. 1:25).â
