“As I sit here at my computer after just getting home from work, cooking dinner, laundry started, and enjoying a nice cup of hot chocolate (of course with tons of marshmallows) my heart feels a little sad that the Christmas season has come and gone so quickly. I know it can be stressful, and it certainly was for many. Amen. But even through all of that, it is such a beautiful time of reflection, giving, and love. Amen.

It’s a time to set our hearts in the right direction toward the Lord Jesus and to remember how God sent His only Son for you and for me, for total freedom. Amen. He came as the greatest, most glorious gift: redemption through the perfect sacrifice (Matthew 1:18–25). Amen.

And in all of this, I pray that today and every day that follows, Jesus remains that Gift the perfect Gift that keeps on giving every single day of our lives (James 1:17). Every moment. Every minute. Every second. Amen. He is there. He is alive and well. He is everything we need in this life and everything we will ever need.

He alone is a friend who sticks closer than a brother (Proverbs 18:24). He is the Almighty, Everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6). He is the Great Physician (Mark 2:17), the Mighty Healer. He is our vindicator—He fights our battles for us (Exodus 14:14). He protects us from so much that we cannot even see or fathom. We truly cannot comprehend all that the Lord, our Creator, does for us. Amen.

He is our bread when we are hungry (Matthew 12:3–4). He is our water our Living Water (John 4:14). Praise the Lord, when we are thirsty, He quenches every desire of our hearts. He fills every broken place with life, liberty, and love. Amen.

So I pray that we all hold fast to the greatest Gift Jesus. For He was born to live, to die, and to be raised again to life for you and for me. Amen. because the enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy but our God came that we would have life to the overflow and have it in abundance. (John 10:10). Amen.

We serve a great and mighty God, and His name is Jesus the most precious name ever given, the holy and righteous name above all names. At the name of Jesus, the bible says that every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that He alone is Lord (Philippians 2:10–11). Amen.

So let us rejoice in knowing that the greatest Gift God gave us keeps on giving. It never runs out. The Lord is the only Gift that gives to us every single day of our lives for whosoever will. Amen.

So run to our Father for whatever you need. For we can and should come boldly, as scripture says, to His throne of grace to find help in our time of need. (Hebrews 4:16). Amen. for I am so thankful in this season of my life that I know Him and that He knows me and that He loves me just as He loves each of you with an everlasting love. Amen.

So whatever you may need whatever heartache, pain, or burden call upon His name. for He will answer you and show you great and mighty things that you do not know (Jeremiah 33:3). He is no respecter of persons (Romans 2:11). He never slumbers nor ever does He sleep (Psalm 121:4). Hallelujah!

His line is always open and available there are no hang-ups, no call waiting, no voicemail. Praise the Lord! just direct access to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. The greatest Gift ever given that truly keeps on giving day in and day out.

So know who you are, and know whom it is that you serve. For we serve the Most High God, and He is with us. He is for us, and He is always working all things together for our good (Romans 8:28). Amen!”

“For it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤️
