Hi, friend.
You and I have had such good times together. We can be apart for months at a time, but it’s as if nothing’s changed when we get together again. You can never know how grateful I am for your friendship.
How I wish, though, that I could give you these things for Christmas:
- Trust in the Bible as the Word of God.
- The joy I have in following Jesus, who is the center of the Christmas story.
- The belief that the Lord can truly change you and make you anew.
- The exhilaration of true forgiveness that God grants those who follow Him.
- Freedom from sin patterns that seem to control you.
- Deep rest in the night, knowing that your soul rests in God’s hands.
- Excitement about how God might use you in the future.
I can’t give you those things, but I can direct you to the One who can — Jesus. I long for the day when we walk together as brothers in Christ! Until then, please know that I love you, am grateful for you, and pray that Jesus will be the ultimate gift for you this Christmas.
