Governor Sarah Palin: "The Elijah List Has Been a Blessing to My Family"
FOUNDING EDITOR'S NOTE: I was both surprised and delighted yesterday to receive this note from Governor Sarah Palin. It is such an encouragement to this ministry that so many around the world are enjoying and being blessed by The Elijah List.
Merry Christmas!! Jesus IS the REASON FOR THE SEASON! -Blessings, Steve Shultz, Founder and Publisher The Elijah List & Breaking Christian News Governor Sarah Palin:
Why is it so wonderful? What do we really celebrate? With the hustle and bustle of the season, we can often run ragged and end up missing the mystery of Christmas, the birth of Jesus. With the advent of this beautiful season, I wanted to offer a few thoughts on keeping Christ in Christmas and pondering the meaning of His birth. More than just a historical event, the arrival of Jesus on the earth was the first step toward atonement, redemption and resurrection. He was "God made flesh", the true hope of the world. If I'm for Christmas, it's only because I'm for Christ.
Trials, hardships, and – yes – death are all part of our existence on earth. One day, I'll get the call and no one likes thinking about it, but the message of Christmas resounds anyway. Fear not. Why? God helpfully elaborates. "For I am with you." Be not dismayed. Why? "For I am your God."
Forget the dopey-hopey-changey things you hear from politicians promising an easier life if only you vote the way they tell you. The words of Scripture are the only words powerful enough to change your life and this culture. "I will help you," God says. "I will strengthen you; I will uphold you with the right hand of My righteousness...Do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall wear....Cast all your anxieties on God because He cares for you...The Lord is my light and my Salvation: whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life: of whom shall I be afraid?" Christmas gently encourages you in your weakness. You don't have to be perfect. Perfection came, wrapped in swaddling clothes and placed in a humble manger. His life and death free you from others' expectations, from cultural decay, and even from your own inadequacies. That's why you can rest in this season, because perfection doesn't depend on you. Ever wonder why there are so many candles during Christmas? "In Him was life and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it."
It can change your life. It's already changed the world. -Governor Sarah Palin-
