Hi! Sorry I haven't posted in here for awhile. Here is a really neat letter I recently received. I think you will find it something well worth reading as well. Have a blessed day! Thanks for visiting today!

Dear loved ones,
As you well know, we are getting closer to my birthday. Every year
there is a celebration in my honor and I think that this year the
celebration will be repeated. During this time there are many
people shopping for gifts, there are many radio announcements, TV
commercials, and in every part of the world everyone is talking
that my birthday is getting closer and closer.

It is really very nice to know, that at least once a year, some
people think of me. As you know, the celebration of my birthday
began many years ago. At first people seemed to understand and be
thankful of all that I did for them, but in these times, no one
seems to know the reason for the celebration. Family and friends
get together and have a lot of fun, but they don't know the meaning
of the celebration.
I remember that last year there was a great feast in my honor The
dinner table was full of delicious foods, pastries, fruits,
assorted nuts and chocolates. The decorations were exquisite and
there were many, many beautifully wrapped gifts. But, do you want
to know something? I wasn't invited. I was the guest of honor and
they didn't remember to send me an invitation. The party was for
me, but when that great day came, I was left outside, they closed
the door in my face .... and I wanted to be with them and share
their table.

In truth, that didn't surprise me because in the last few years all
close their doors to me. Since I wasn't invited, I decided to enter
the party without making any noise. I went in and stood in a
corner. They were all drinking; there were some who were drunk and
telling jokes and laughing at everything. They were having a grand
time. To top it all, this big fat man all dressed in red wearing a
long white beard entered the room yelling Ho-Ho-Ho! He seemed
drunk. He sat on the sofa and all the children ran to him, saying:
"Santa Claus, Santa Claus" .. as if the party were in his honor!

At 12 Midnight all the people began to hug each other; I extended
my arms waiting for someone to hug me and ... do you know ... no
one hugged me. Suddenly they all began to share gifts. They opened
them one by one with great expectation. When all had been opened,
I looked to see if, maybe, there was one for me.
What would you feel if on your birthday everybody shared gifts and
you did not get one? I then understood that I was unwanted at that
party and quietly left.

Every year it gets worse. People only remember to eat and drink,
the gifts, the parties and nobody remembers me. I would like this
Christmas that you allow me to enter into your life. I would like
that you recognize the fact that almost two thousand years ago I
came to this world to give my life for you, on the cross, to save
you. Today, I only want that you believe this with all your heart.
I want to share something with you. As many didn't invite me to
their party, I will have my own celebration, a grandiose party that
no one has ever imagined, a spectacular party.
I'm still making the final arrangements. Today I am sending out
many invitations and there is an invitation for you. I want to know
if you wish to attend and I will make a reservation for you and
write your name with golden letters in my great guest book. Only
those on the guest list will be invited to the party. Those who
don't answer the invite, will be left outside.
Be prepared because when all is ready you will be part of my great
party.

See you soon.
I Love you!
Jesus
