(1 John
3:16-18 NKJV) By this we know love, because He
laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down
our lives for the brethren. But whoever has
this world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts
up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide
in him? My little children, let us not love
in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. |

Below are pictures of
Christmas in Vietnam
Each year
the celebration of Christmas gets bigger here in
Vietnam. Though most of the
time when a Church is shown on TV, The press, or the
internet in Vietnam
it is a Catholic Church, the message of Christmas is getting
out. Sometimes as I read of the war against Christmas in the
U.S. I am thinking that the
war is not really against Christmas, but against Christians.
Here in
Vietnam Christians are still persecuted and some jailed or
even die for Christ, Christmas is getting the message out
and many are embracing it, not Christ, but God is using it
to reach out to those who look at Christians in ignorance.
As these learn of Christian beliefs the knowledge will
reduce their fears. |

Meditate on this:
The Triumphs of the Kingdom Age
(Isa 25:1-4 NKJV) O
LORD, You are my God. I will exalt You, I will praise
Your name, For You have done wonderful things; Your
counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.
{2} For You have made a city a ruin, A fortified city a
ruin, A palace of foreigners to be a city no more; It will
never be rebuilt. {3} Therefore the strong people
will glorify You; The city of the terrible nations will fear
You. {4} For You have been a strength to the
poor,
A strength to the
needy
in his distress, A refuge
from the storm, A shade from the heat; For the blast of the
terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.
God's Promise:
(Isa 29:19 NKJV) The
humble also shall increase their joy in the LORD, And
the poor
among men shall rejoice
In the Holy One of Israel. |
