Miss Christmas?
Matthew 2

1After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem 2and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.”

3When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. 4When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Christ was to be born. 5″In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:
6″ ‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
are by no means least among the rulers of Judah;
for out of you will come a ruler
who will be the shepherd of my people Israel.’”

“A King is Born!”

Saviour for the Lost
Forsake me not, O lord: O my God, be not far from me. Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation. â€” Psalm 33,21,22.

WHOM did God receive but the forsaken, whom did he heal but the sick, whom did he make to see but the blind, whom did he resurrect but the dead, whom did he make holy but the sinful, whom did he instruct but the ignorant? He only comforts the miserable and gives grace to those who lack it. Thus no proud person can receive the holiness, wisdom or righteousness of God; nor can he receive the work of God, but he depends upon his own efforts, making an earthly, false, boastful saint out of himselfâ€”a hypocrite.
Hasten to help me, O God, for all others hasten to destroy! God’s help is not as human help. God is not the father of the rich but of the poorâ€”widows and orphans. He has sent the rich away empty. “O Lord my salvation” suggests that I seek no salvation or succour in myself nor in any other man but in him alone.

Prayer

TEACH us, dear Father, not to rely upon or trust in our own good deeds or means, but to venture out upon thine infinite mercy. Let us not despair because of our sinful life, but value thy mercy as higher, wider and stronger than all our life. Amen.

We value your friendship and the opportunity to share the love of Jesus together with you.

“Glorious King”

Silent night! Holy Night!
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child.
Holy Infant, so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night! Holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight.
Glories stream from heaven afar;
Heavenly hosts sing, Alleluia;
Christ, the Savior is born! Christ, the Savior is born!

Silent night! Holy night!
Son of God, love’s pure light
Radiant beams from thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth, Jesus, Lord at thy birth.
