Be Merry

It is easy to get caught up in what the world says Christmas means - gifts, gifts, gifts and Santa and lights and food and family. 
Don't get me wrong, those are all amazing things and things our family will enjoy this year but it is always good to take one second before all of that to reflect on the TRUE meaning of Christmas and how for those of us who believe can have a very Merry Christmas.
Jesus's birth (Luke 2: 4-19) represents our freedom from sin. An opportunity to accept the free gift that is eternal life - a chance to spend eternity seated at the right hand of God in a place with no pain. No sadness. No death. 
Because of Christmas, Heaven will be my home one day and my hope is that it will be yours too.
As we enter into Christmas weekend love your family a little more, be thankful for every blessing and of course...

BE MERRY!


With love, The Salzwedels
