6+ y ago

—

In 1847, a French poet was asked by a clergyman to write a poem for Christmas mass. Using the gospel of Luke, he imagined witnessing the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem. “Cantique de Noel” or “O Holy Night” was the product of his inspiration. What made that night so holy, so divine? http://www.wiredalive.com…

Who Turned Down the Lights?

6+ y ago

—

Like Christmas lights on a house, neighborhood, and city is visible; so every Jesus follower should shine bright in this dark world. When He was here He was the Light of the world. With Him in us we are lights in this world. Let your light shine! http://www.wiredalive.comBy LIVEWIRE PRODUCTIONS

My Cross to Bear

Out with the Old, In with the New

Make Yourself at Home

6+ y ago

Have you ever invited someone to stay a few days at your house only to regret that decision afterwards? They make themselves at home, but not in a good way. They don't clean their dirty dishes.
