In Touch Ministries: An Intimate Look at The Birth of Jesus.
Every year at Christmas, many people open the Word of God and read about the birth of Christ, but do we really know the full story? Is it possible that we are missing some important details about the incarnation that God would have us understand? In this message, Dr. Stanley takes you deep into the Christmas story, revealing the eternal implications of the seemingly insignificant details of the nativity
"They
rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. And when they had come into the house,
they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him.
And... presented gifts to Him."
Matthew 2:10,
11
Before we get to all the posted articles this week, I'd like to restate some bitter-sweet news. This will be my last posting (for sure the last for this year and possibly most of 2013 as well). I know this comes as a shock, and I just want to say this decision was not made lightly, but with much prayer. It's been a wonderful experience these past 3 years, and many of you have been faithful doodlers, and friends. It's not closing due to lack of interest, that's for sure! However, life has gotten much busier this year, and things started getting out of balance for me. It became clear that I needed to prioritize my life's activities ~ after all, the Lord blessed me with a diversified creative nature. That for me, means letting go of my blogging that took up so much of my time. After thinking on it a few months and going back and forth about it, I finally felt peace about my decision. Hobbies are important, however, there's a time and season for everything, and the time has come for me to say farewell for awhile. I hope the Lord leads me back on this path at some point in the future! In the meantime, why not hop over to my newly designed Dizzy Designs Store site, and browse about at what I'm creating when you can. I hope to overwhelm you with a large variety of handmade crafts that you can purchase, hang on your wall, embellishments to craft with, crochet projects too, and a whole lotta "stuff" I've yet to get started on!
