WHOLE HEALTH NOTE
(Christmas edition)

Jesus was born to die for everyone’s sins (including yours and mine) and neither the manger nor the cross is where He ultimately desired to stay. Just as Jesus was physically conceived in Mary, He wants to be spiritually conceived in you, He wants to be born in you and then live in you to do the Father’s will for the rest of your life. This is how you too can be a mother for Him, like Mary (see Matthew 12:50).
In their day, the Magi gave expensive gifts
to Jesus (Matt 2:11) but the reason they were considered “wise men” was because
they gave Him what mattered most. Today, you can also give gifts to Jesus, but
what He really wants more than your “stuff”
is a trust relationship with you. Is there room in your “inn” for Him? For you to “present” or gift yourself to
Christ, completely and sincerely not just today but on a daily basis, would truly
be more precious to Him than any gold, frankincense and myrrh would ever be. So as you celebrate His birthday, give Him what He really wants: YOU.
Happy Birthday to Jesus and Merry Christmas to you and your family!
