Think

 

Finally, 

brothers, 

whatever is true, 

whatever is honorable, 

whatever is just, 

whatever is pure, 

whatever is lovely, 

whatever is commendable, 

if there is any excellence, 

if there is anything worthy of praise, 

think about these things. 


Philippians 4:8

Reconciliation

 

2 Corinthians 5:19-20


that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.We are therefore Christ’s ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: Be reconciled to God.

Freedom

 

In my distress 

I called to the LORD, 

and He answered and set me free.

Psalm 118:5

Orthodox Christmas

 

It is Christmas Day today to the Orthodox Church in the Julian calendar.


Merry Christmas!


С Рождеством Христовым!


Our Father who art in heaven! Hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven; Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

Matthew 6:9-13




Thanks, Irena, for the verse. You inspired me to include it in my Christmas greeting too. I think it is fitting.


God bless you and keep you all.
