My soul jumps in joy at the name of Jesus!

It says - prepare for his birthday!

Prepare for your birthday!

Oh, not the day you were born

from your mothers womb,

but for a new birth coming within you!

There will be a new birth!

You just need to open your eyes

and your heart. You may find yourself

doing things you  never thought would be possible!

Like every birth there may be some kicking and resistance,

but reflect on the days leading to Christmas and

ask Jesus if he wants you to learn

something new, meet someone , or

whatever it may be.This is Jesus's birth

but also ours.What gift can you give Jesus

for his birthday?What gift is he going

to give you. Expectation! Wonderful expectation!
