When Mary & Joseph first got Engaged to be Married, they probably would of had idea's and plans about how to Live their Lives Together.
They might have thought about where they would Live, what they would do in their Life and how they would spend their time.

Then Suddenly The Angel of The Lord appeared to them and revealed God's Plan for their Lives.

They could have Chosen to ignore God's Plan, but instead they made the 'Wisest Choice' of their Lives, to 'Welcome Jesus Into Their Lives'.

From that One Decision, their Lives were Transformed into a Better and more Wonderful Way of Living than they could ever have thought of themselves.

Even though the Plans they had already made might have been Very Good plans, God's Way is Always Better.

Jesus came to Give Life 'More Abundantly'. (John 10:10).  

Later in Jesus' Life He met many people who had 'Made Their Own Plans' about how to Live their Lives.

Matthew the Tax Collector had made plans to Earn Lots of money by stealing from people on their tax payments.

Simon Peter had made plans to Live his Life at sea Fishing.

Mary Magdalene made plans to Live as a prostitute to make money.

Many of Jesus' Disciples had previously made plans to Live an average Life, maybe get Married and find a good job.

Some of these plans were ok, but some were obviously bad.

When they met Jesus He Gave them all a New Plan and God's Way to Live Life that was More Exciting and Enjoyable than any of their own plans. They All made the 'Wisest Choice' of their Lives to Adapt to God's Plan and to 'Follow Jesus'.

As you 'Make Your Plans' for how to spend Christmas time, I Encourage You to be 'Open Minded' to when 'God' Gives You a 'Better Plan'.

Many people lose sight of The Real Meaning of Christmas and they Miss Out on Something Very Special.

Christmas is about Celebrating the Birth of God's Only Son.

We Celebrate this on 25th December, yet 'worldly/society ways' have become Impatient and they have Christmas parties in November and early December, shops start selling Christmas things in Summer time, and people eat their mince pies and Christmas Treats throughout December.

By the time it comes to Christmas Day many people are either too stressed from Frantic planning and shopping or they get bored with Christmas because they started too early and didn't actually Celebrate Jesus' Birth.

So they Miss Out on the 'Wonderful Gift' of being able to take part in Celebrating 'With God' for His Son's Birthday, and they Miss the True Joy and Happiness that it Gives.

If You chose 'worldly/society ways' to Celebrate Christmas then it's likely that your Life as a whole will also be stressed, bored and Missing Out on Something Special.

Jesus is Christmas ~ Jesus is Life.

Mary & Joseph and the Disciples of Jesus All made One Choice to Adapt & Adjust to God's Way and it made their Lives Better and more Enjoyable.

When You make the 'Wisest Choice' of Your Life to 'Welcome Jesus', then Your Life will be Transformed into a Better and more Wonderful Way than You could ever imagine.      

~ Positive Bible Verse ~

All the people, even the tax collectors, when they heard Jesus’ words, acknowledged that God’s Way was right.
(Luke 7:29)
