There is a Casting Crowns song that I {Mandy} love that's called While You Were Sleeping. If you've never heard it, you can watch the youtube video below that includes the lyrics. It is a play off of the song O Little Town of Bethlehem. The premise of the Casting Crowns song is: Will you be sleeping when Christ returns? Will there be no room for Him in the world He came to save? This is a very deep thought that deserves pondering at any time, but especially at Christmas when we celebrate Christ coming to earth. As we celebrate Christmas this year, some with decorated trees, beautifully wrapped gifts, and family gatherings, let's take time to really focus on what Christmas represents. Yes, it's peace on Earth and good will toward men, but it's really all about God's love for us. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16) This Christmas, spend some time being truly thankful for Him and for all that He has done for us--given us the best gift of all--the gift of forgiveness and the hope of eternal life with Him. GIVEAWAY TIME! We're celebrating Christmas and our 2 year anniversary by giving YOU gifts! Today we have Love & Respect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs - Hard Cover and Audio.
