Christmas helps us understand God’s wisdom. Worldly Wisdom; Wondering Wisdom; Wasted Wisdom; Worship Wisdom.

Because of the Miracles; Because of Their Meagerness; Because of the Manger.

We Want There to be – HOPE (9:2); We Want There to be – JOY (9:3); We Want There to be – GOD (9:6-7)

God’s gift to all His true followers - is PEACE. BOND of Peace; PRAYER of Peace; GOD of Peace.

Sincere followers of Christ pursue the prize of God’s heavenly call. Looking Forward; Growing Tall; Standing Firm.

We can only have one - #1 Priority. Jesus Plus Nothing Else; Jesus Over Everything Else; Jesus In Everything Else.

A person becomes a pillar by choosing to become selfless. Put Others Ahead of Self; Put Christ Ahead of Self.

Successfully following Christ involves “doing” certain things. We Are to Work; God is Our Fuel; Joy is Our Pay.
