From The Heart 

From the Heart.

Christmas is a wonderful time of the year as family and friends gathering to celebrate the birth of Jesus. As I think about the birth of Jesus, the impact that Jesus has had on people lives is enumerable. The Gaither’s wrote a song “Jesus There’s Just Something About That Name” and in the middle of the song they have this recitation.

Jesus.... The mere mention of His name can calm the storm, heal the broken, and raise the dead. At the name of Jesus, I've seen sin hardened men melted, derelicts transformed. The lights of hope put in the eyes of a hopeless child. At the name of Jesus, hatred and bitterness turn to love and forgiveness, arguments cease. I've heard a mother softly breathe His name at the bedside of a child delirious from fever, and watched... as that little body grew quiet, and fevered brow cooled. I've sat the side of a dying saint. Her body wracked with pain, who in those final fleeting seconds summoned her last ounce of ebbing strength, just to whisper Earth's sweetest name. Jesus...Jesus.... Emperors have tried to destroy it. Philosophies have tried to stamp it out. Tyrants have tried to wash it from the face of the Earth with the very blood of those who claimed it. Yet it still stands. And there shall be that final day when every voice that has ever uttered a sound, every voice of Adam's race, shall raise in one mightily chorus to proclaim the name of Jesus. For in that day, every knee shall bow, every tongue shall confess, that Jesus Christ is truly Lord. You see, it was not by mere chance that caused the angel one night, long ago to say to a virgin maiden: His name, His name shall be called Jesus....Jesus....Jesus..... Yes there is something, something about that name........

God’s gift of His Son has changed the lives of countless individuals. Has it changed yours?
