Christmas Thots 59. Children love Christmas, because as they think of Me in the manger, they all get to be My older brothers and sisters, and that makes them feel real important.—Jesus 60.As you enjoy all the blessings of life this Christmas, stop and think about what meager circumstances Jesus was born into. He had so much, yet became so little. He became nothing so that we could have everything. All that we have, we owe to Him. 61. Giving you joy is a joy to Me.—Jesus 62. If you want to offer someone the best gift this Christmas, give them Jesus! Christmas comes and goes, but Jesus never leaves the heart. 63. Christmas is a lot of fun‚ but it's also a lot of work as you draw on your spiritual, physical, and emotional resources in order to give and pour out to others. I promise, though, that as you are faithful to look to Me, I will replenish your reservoirs, filling them to overflowing.—Jesus Christmas Thots 74. Christmas is My love come down to Earth. Let it possess you and fill you and transport you to Heaven.—Jesus 75. Christmas celebrations—not all the work but all the joy and fun—are a foretaste of daily life in Heaven. 76. Light, lights‚ lighting, lighted, lit!—Ways to say and describe what you and I will be doing in the hearts and lives of those around us this Christmas. Remember, light plays a big part in Christmas—the star‚ the angels' brilliance, Christmas trees being lit up. And most of all: "I am the Light of the world!"—Jesus 77. Sharing kindness at Christmas is good practice for the way we should be all the rest of the year. 78. Why not have a birthday party for Me this year? Sing "Happy Birthday to Jesus," make a cake, blow out the candles, and tell Me how much you love Me. After all, it's My birthday!—Jesus Christmas Thots 90. Light your smile‚ light a soul, light the world, light My life.—Jesus 91. Don't be a tree without lights! Turn on your smile and let the Lord's love twinkle in your eyes! 92. Here's a Christmas deal you can't resist: Have Me and you can have it all! It's an "unlimited for One" offer that you can't ignore. Take Me with you everywhere and every day this season, and you will have unlimited resources available to you—it's all you need and more!—Jesus 93. Some of the most precious gifts in life are given by the weakest: a mother's care, a sick person's gratitude, a child's hug, Christ as a babe's unconditional love for all. 94. Are you one of those who dread Christmas a bit?—Not for the good things or the souls won, but because Christmas just means a ton more work on top of an already busy schedule? Well, then you know how I felt coming to Earth. Coming here wasn't easy; it interrupted a lot of what I had planned. So I ask you again to follow in My footsteps: Tread the path of love; halt what you want in order to save the world, and you will not be disappointed. For I will give you an extra blessing of My love for every sacrifice you make to give Me to the world.—Jesus Christmas Thots 103. I was born at Christmastime, and you can be reborn during this time.—Jesus 104. Make the world a little less lonely on Christmas by being there for someone who is alone. 105. If in your heart you say, "All I want for Christmas is to bring Jesus' love and joy to others"—if you wish this, you will be given a heart of gold, and true happiness will fill you to overflowing with love! 106. You often hear the expression during the holidays, "Christmas cheer." But true Christmas cheer is not merriment‚ alcohol, and frantic activities, but a truly cheerful heart that lifts Me up so that I can lift others' spirits and give them cheerful hearts.—Jesus 107. Christmas is fun and feasting and fellowship and joy and giving gifts. But most of all, Christmas is knowing and loving and sharing Me.—Jesus |
