I love this time of year. It helps put my life back on track. A wonderful time of year when I can reflect on where I am at in my personal development, where I have come from and where I am going.
I am really enjoying the Christmas music right now. I've been doing music for various church functions, mostly accompaniment. I'm also listening to as much variety as I can get. At the moment it's "O Holy Night." I love Christmas music; it is rich and varied and heartfelt.
But the best has been the one I got to sing. I was asked to sing in a duet "He Sent His Son" words by Mabel Jones Gabbott that just say so much.
How could the Father tell the world of love and tenderness?
He sent his Son, a newborn babe, with peace and holiness.
How could the Father show the world the pathway we should go?
He sent his son to walk with men on earth, that we may know.
How could the Father tell the world of sacrifice, of death?
He sent his Son to die for us and rise with living breath.
What does the Father ask of us? What do the scriptures say?
Have faith, have hope, live like his Son, help others on their way.
What does he ask? Live like his Son.
The greatest blessing I have is my testimony that Jesus Christ lives. He is my Savior. He knows me and loves me. He is sad when I make mistakes and rejoices when I follow Him. He wants me to be the best I can. And He is the greatest gift I have ever been or will ever be given. God gave his Son to me to teach me, to help me understand, and to save me from my weaknesses. And all that He asks is that I follow his Son's example. That is the most profound blessing of all.
