The verse John 3:16 'For God so loved the world that he sent his one and only son, that whoever believed in him shall not perish but have everlasting life'
It is perhaps a well known verse, but it is a real testimony to our Christian faith, the fact that the babe Jesus was born as a SAVIOUR for our sins. So that if YOU believe that he came to die, and ask for forgiveness YOU ALSO will recieve the GIFT of eternal life in heaven. John 15:13 reminds us 'Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.'
Use this verse to inpire you or to meditate on in the next few weeks, and especiallly over the Christmas period. God bless you all and have a wonderful Christmas.
See you in the New year with more challenges!

Wow--the first to comment. I don't think I will have time to create for this challenge, but I wanted to say, Esther, this is a GREAT challenge. This verse sums it up. And at this time of the year when we are busy preparing for Christmas, we need to be reminded of why we celebrate. JESUS--he is it! The only reason, the only thing we need in life, the most precious gift ever given. Thanks for reminding us and inspiring us! Blessings to you all this Christmas and in the coming year!

Think this is a great challenge also especially at this time of year to be reminded of the birth of a SAviour and God's love in sending him to us.
You all have done such a great job with this challenge. Just love all you different takes on it.
I've only just discovered this blog and I am blown away. Not only is the artwork fabulous but the message of Christ and the obvious rejoicing in His gifts is given the paramount place just as it should be. Thank you.
I knew exactly what I would do when I saw this post - nothing deep or intense here, just a light touch! :-)

Bless you for focusing on what is important - our soul's salvation through repentance and trust in Jesus Christ as our Saviour and Lord. How amazing that God loved us all so much He would sacrifice His only Son this way. I am so grateful!
