A Real Christmas Gift
.... I desire to bring you New Love. The kind you have never really wanted, because it was never really shown to you. The kind of love that was born in a stable, in a manger so poorly built that no one in your country would even call it a shack.
A love so profound that it went to the cross to pay the price of life for people who would never appreciate it. He paid the price with His life knowing that some would never accept it.
Think of that. Would you do it?
For those who will fully accept the sacrifice of My Son, there are realms of joy. There are gifts from my heart here on Earth, and in eternity.
The kind of joy you have yet to feel. The kind of love you have never walked in, though you have seen it at a distance of late.
You have held back from totally agreeing with my will for you. You have not wanted to be embraced, or scolded, by me. Turn away from all that, and face the truth.
Nothing can cause you to be unlovable to me, except your not receiving my love.
That is what I want you to receive this Christmas Morning.
Amen, Lord Jesus, Amen.
(A few moments ago these words began. Praise God. ) Paul. 1AM Christmas Morning, 2003
Note: put the following pictures together, this rainy, boring, lonely, Christmas day. Found the above word in my files, from six years ago, and have added it a the beginning. My experience is not so different from others, I think. Original page follows.

yes I have fun with my cameras
yes, i have published some of these pictures before, or forms of them.
These are here for your enjoyment and the enhancement of this day, Only.
A more complete version of "A Real Christmas Gift" Starts with "Christmas for you was not a celebration" First part is for me, specifically, and ending is what you see above. Not entirely pleasant for some to read, I think, but the ending is. Deals with my underlying problems in the inescapable light the LORD puts on them. Full version may not be for everyone. Paul.
