"For unto us a child is born;....." Isaiah 9:6 
 

"Dearest Lord Jesus, may I talk to you for a while?.-----Lord, ----- Lord, this is Your birthday.  Some say it is not the actual time when You were born, but that doesn't matter, I want to celebrate the  birthday of my Jesus whether it is the actual day or not.---Precious Jesus Christ, You are my all in all.  Without You I wouldn't want to live.  You are my reason for living.  I love you Lord, with Agape love, the love I must have for You as my God.  Godly love, not the love that I feel for my friends.  It is something much deeper, --this love.  You know all Lord, and You know whether I am telling the truth.----Thankyou Jesus, Saviour, that You were willing to come to this earth.  This sinful earth.  That must have been agony in itself to leave Heaven and Your Father and the holiness there to come and walk like all the other men the dusty roads of Jerusalem, Galilee and wherever you went.  

There in the wilderness when You were tempted.  It must have been terrible, and to experience so many many people who still didn't want to believe that You were the Son of God after seeing so many miracles. ---- Oh Lord, the pain of rejection.  and all the time You knew how You were going to die.  When You walked past someone that was hanging on a cross, You knew it was waiting for You too.  The Word of God says that You had a choice to lay Your life down or to take it up again.  You were not forced to die for me, and yet You did. 

In Gethsemane when all deserted You, it must have been heartbreaking,   How can I but give my life to You.  -----Lord we see so many pictures and statutes of You hanging on the Cross, but none of them portray remotely what You really went through. ---They beated You with that terrible lash for our sicknesses.  It ripped open Your flesh to the bone.  I am sure it could reach your breast too. It was so terrible that the Bible says that You were unrecognizable as a man.  They plucked out Your beard.-- Oh Lord that must have been pure agony, and then they made You carry Your own Cross.  It must have hurt Your torn back so indescribably.  No wonder that You stumbled when You had to climb uphill to Calvary.  

Thankyou Jesus.  My Jesus Christ. Now the King of kings and Lord of lords.  Thankyou that You made it, for you were tempted not only in the desert but all the time, just as we are tempted, but You never sinned, therefore You say in Revelations that if we overcome like You overcame, You will call us to come and sit with You on Your Throne.  Lord, help me to make it too.  Oh Jesus, I don't want to disappoint You, but still I find myself blowing it all the time.--- Oh have mercy on me and help me to please You my King.  

How often I disappoint You.  I am so sorry Lord.  Forgive me.  I will try my best to stay under the Blood always.--- I love you Jesus.  I love You so much.  You are my anchor, my fortress and my peace.  My shelter and my Rock.  I trust You with my life, as I have given You my life.  Thankyou for Your grace and mercy, just like the waves of the sea, it washes away my sins all the time.  

I will be in awe this day, not celebrating like those who doesn't know you and swear Your Holy Name, but like one of Your little ones.  One of Your sheep.  Thankyou wonderful Shepherd that You are my Saviour and that I may know for sure that I belong to You.  May You be pleased in the way Your children celebrate Your birthday.--------Again, thankyou so much Lord Jesus Christ. 

 Amen.
