“The King will reply,
‘I tell you the truth,
whatever you did
for one of the least of these
brothers of mine,
you did for me.’
~Matthew 25:40~
During the holiday season, most of us will be doing special things for others. Doing and giving is wonderful and one of the lessons that God wants us to learn early and do for many years. I’m thankful when I hear of all those who are being blessed by our gifts of food, time, transportation, etc. I hope this will continue all year long for all of us.
Mr. James Miller will be going to his doctor today for an update. Pray for Mr. James and “Miss” Mary as they travel today and as they hear the report. As you pray for them, don’t forget to pray for her son-in-law who is having a heart procedure this morning in Jackson.

Joey’s faith is glowing! Read why she said she would go through this cancer ordeal again.
All the area churches are having holiday programs, caroling, meals, and other activities. I hope you will spend as much and more time in celebrating the birth of Jesus and doing for others as you do shopping for gift for people who already have more than they need.
