December 25 "Saved Me to the Uttermost" Hebrews 5, 6, 7

"The future has invaded the present in the form of a small baby wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manager – an unusual place to find the master and creator of the universe.

Yet this baby, with fire in his eyes, would change everything." George Eldon Ladd.

He came this day, and we still mark it 2,000 years later.  Had to be Something to that to stay around so long.  Born in secret solitude in a lowly of lowest place.  Hidden from all but parents and animals and shepherds doing what they knew to do that very day.  They met the future of the world.  The hope of a Kingdom to come.  And a very Present Shadow of that kingdom on earth.

"Once in our world, a stable had Something in it that was bigger than our whole world."  C.S. Lewis.

And because of this...
Heb 6:9 - "we are persuaded of better things for you..."  God will not forget your labor of love 2014.
You have a hope.  An anchor of your soul.  Heb 6:19.
A forerunner for you entered the picture.

Heb 7:25 - "and He is able to save you to the uttermost --- save those who draw near to Him.
And don't ever forget this---He ever lives to make intercession for you.

May you have a Merry Christmas full of hope.

COME BOLDLY:  Timeless Prayers
Oh Father, the mystery of this Gospel boggles our minds.  The future invades.  The past lingers.  The present offers such hope.  We bow down before You on this Christmas Day to say we love you!  Thank you for saving us to the uttermost!
