Faith

Where Faith¹ is alive and active, there wickedness and sin no longer lives.

1. The nature of Faith is pure. It is the dwelling place of God.

Man shall not live by bread alone

There are two strengths which govern and maintain our well-being viz. the strength of immunity and the strength of God's Grace.

With advancing age our immunity may weaken, but God's Grace always remains invincibly strong and it protects us against wickedness and every kind of harm.

God has created us in such a way that for the greater part of our life we should rely on the strength of HIS Grace and less on our own strength— that we live humbly and in Gratefulness to God— and not exult  in the  Pride of our strength¹.

Trust in God and live in HIS Grace².

It is better to be in the hands of God than to rely on the weak rampart of our own immune strength.

1. Physical; Intellectual; Emotional.
2. Stay away from everything that corrupts our soul.

Jesus's Love

Jesus's Love is Merciful and  Forgiving—

be Merciful when people wrong you and hurt you; do not delay in offering your forgiveness.

Jesus's Love is Gentle and Kind—

be Gentle and Polite and Peaceable, when people oppose you; be Gentle when you correct people who wrong you.

Jesus's Love is Patient and Understanding—

be Patient with yourself, for human nature is weak and in God's time it will heal; be Patient and Understanding with all those who irritate you and go against you— be Patient enough to give them sufficient time for repentance; be Patient in difficult circumstances, trusting that God will uphold us and never abandon us.

Jesus's Love is Humble—

be Humble enough to acknowledge your sins before God; be Humble enough to suffer for doing what is right (for it is meritorious in the sight of God)

Jesus's Love is reconciling—

be reconciled with God—return to HIM humbly with all your heart; be reconciled and be at Peace with all those who are ill-disposed towards you; be a man of Peace in reconciling hostility.

Live your life Beautifully in Jesus's Love.

Christmas star' 2018 video

Here's a video presentation of my Christmas star' 2018.

Once again, I wish you all a "Merry Christmas" and a Blessed New year 2019.

Christmas star' 2018

  

Message:

 Love incarnates, to save the world from the bondage of sin and to give new life to all those who believe in HIM.

Love suffers and dies on the cross to bring us to salvation, in HIM.

'Christmas' is a Loving message of God the Father to the world— the gift of HIS Beloved Son for our salvation.

Description:

In the scene, the star symbolizes the Birth of our Lord Jesus. White colour is symbolic of HIS Purity; HIS Divinity; HIS innocence (the unblemished lamb)

The red bands on the star is symbolic of HIS sufferings— for the sins of the world. HE comes into the sinful world to bear the burden of our sins and to save us from the bondage of sin and to lead us on the path of Eternal life— in HIM.

The Star is hung on the Cross: From the moment of HIS birth and throughout HIS life, HE was pursued to be killed.

HE was born to teach us Love.

HE was born to suffer for our sins.

'True Love' always suffers.

The green cross is symbolic of HIS innocence. [ "For if this is what is done
to green wood, what will be done when the wood is dry?" (Luke 23:31) ]

The green shoots are symbolic of "the giver of New life".

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year 2019, in Jesus Christ, our Lord.

Have a Blessed Christmas week !!!

Christmas

Christmas is a celebration of Jesus's Love for us.
HE came into this world in Love¹ and HE died for our salvation in Love.
HE came into this world that we may not perish², but we may live³ and remain alive⁴ in HIS Love.

We truly celebrate Christmas when we live Jesus's Love in our life— and give testimony of our love through our faithful life in HIM.

1. To testify HIS love for us.

4. Alive in this world and continue to live in Eternal life.
