Jolene, Rachel, and Liz celebrate the Christmas holiday with a number of GG members. Topics include a reading of the Christmas story from the Bible, our top 5 Christmas songs, top 5 Christmas movies, and a few giveaways!
Ladies, this year has been amazing. I thank God for the great things he is doing here at GodlyGals. I am so inspired and touched by the young women I have encountered through this ministry. I wanted to take this opportunity to wish you all a Merry Christmas.
Growing up in a non-Christian home, my view of Christmas was always slightly skewed. Deep inside though, I knew that there was something more; something more significant and holy about this special day. I encourage you all to take in this holiday. Listen to the words of the songs we sing, read the Christmas Story (the original one from the Bible), and think on the awesome gift God has given us.
Understand that this holiday is more than just lights, shopping, parties, and cookies. It’s really about the incomprehensible Love God has for us – so much that he’d send His son to Earth to be our savior. Please remember this above all else this Christmas.
May you and yours be blessed.
In Christ,
Jolene
Penn Jillette of Penn & Teller is an atheist, but he recently posted this video blog that is pretty AMAZING and really encouraging to me. I know not all atheists share his view (in fact, probably very few) but this is something to keep in mind whenever you are hesitant to share the gospel with someone.
Like he says, it’s like seeing someone about to be hit by a truck–at some point, you’re going to lunge for them to save them. And according to Penn, “this is more important.”
“How much do you have to hate somebody to believe that everlasting life is possible and not tell them that. I mean, if I believed beyond a shadow of a doubt that a truck was coming to hit you and you didn’t believe it, that truck was bearing down on you, there’s a certain point where I tackle you. And this is more important than that.”
He’s right. It is.
But if I say, “I will not remember Him Or speak anymore in His name,” Then in my heart it becomes like a burning fire Shut up in my bones; And I am weary of holding it in, And I cannot endure it. – Jeremiah 20:9 (NASB)
