LOOKING AT CHRISTMAS 1

Galatians 4:4
But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,

CHRISTMAS MAKES US LOOK AT THE PROPHECY OF CHRIST
 Christmas is a very exciting time.  It is busy, even sometimes hectic.  It seems that someone is always complaining about the commercialization of Christmas and they certainly have a valid point.
One great thing about Christmas is that it is a time when everyone has to give some thought to the coming of Christ to be born among men. Many will try to avoid offending people by saying Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas but even in doing that they are acknowledging that Christmas is about something more than just a holiday.
Christmas is about God fulfilling His promise to send us a Savior.  The birth of Jesus was prophesied hundreds of years before His actual birth.  The holiday we celebrate is the fulfilling of that prophecy that God would come and deliver us from our sin.
 I am so thankful for God's promises, especially the ones that He has already kept.
