Why is Christmas so important ? God sent his Son as our Lord and Savior for all of us. Jesus Christ born in flesh and to walk among u.s Luke 2 vrs 7-14.6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
and Isaiah 9 vrs 6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. This is certainly a reason to celebrate. Merry Christmas to All !

As we continue to be inspired with God's Word from our Bible .
Proverbs 4 vrs 6-7 Do not forsake wisdom, and she will protect you, love her, and she will watch over you. The beginning of wisdom is this; get wisdom. Though it cost all you have, get understanding.
In James 1 vrs 5 it tell us how to get wisdom. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
Proverbs 3 vrs 13 Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding. As Christians we can gain knowledge and wisdom through the study of God's word. May God grant this to us all.
We ask in Jesus name. Amen
