Will We Accept God's Endless Provision for Our Needs?

Sometimes we forget that Jesus was promised to be our Everlasting Father, as Isaiah 9:6 announced. We may also forget that our Everlasting Father is capable of providing for our needs. Regardless of our social status, a day comes when our needs exceed our resources. When Jesus is your Everlasting Father, you are within the bounds of all his resources.

God sent Jesus to be our Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace. As we give thanks for God’s gift of Jesus, let us celebrate Christmas with joyful hearts for the privilege of being the recipients of his love and kindness. Merry Christmas and God bless you.

Faith's Priority ~ Everlasting Father

The majority of human beings have a list of priorities that guide their lives. What has influenced your list of priorities that guide you through the Christmas holidays? It is so easy to be pressured into believing gift-giving is more important than our relationships with those to whom the gifts will be given. We should not believe or accept that – but just listen those TV commercials!

What can we discover about faith’s priorities that intend to keep joy and God’s everlasting love in all activities, that ring out the Good News that Jesus has come to be Savior, Redeemer and Everlasting Father? We demonstrate faith’s priority when we emphasize God so loved us, He gave His ultimate best to save us. Merry Christmas!
