REAL Birthday of Jesus Christ

Hello Beloved,

I just received an email about Christmas and how people are saying that we should not be saying " Happy Holidays"  but Merry Christmas , because Jesus is the reason for the season..You know what kind of email I mean... Anyway as I was reading it and thinking about it  something came to mind.

" I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA, THE BEGINNING AND THE ENDING."
You will find this in Revelation 1:8 (KJV)
" I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA, THE FIRST AND THE LAST:"
You will find this in Revelation 1:11
"I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA, THE BEGINNING AND THE END."
You will find this in Revelation 21: 6
"I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA, THE BEGINNING AND THE END,
THE FIRST AND THE THE LAST."
You will find this in Revelation 22: 13
Now you may be wondering why I wrote that down.. Well, I want to share with you what I learned in church about the beginning and the end of the Jewish year.

Nisan, is the last month in the Jewish calendar.  This is when the Passover is held. ( mid- March- mid April)    Passover:    The Exodus from Egypt slavery.
Adar, is the first month in the Jewish calendar.. ( mid- February-mid March)
We know that baby lambs are born usually in the early Spring of the year.... We also know that Christ Jesus is often referred to as " The Lamb of God".  Now we have learned in Revelation that Jesus is the ALPHA  and OMEGA, the BEGINNING and the END...  The FIRST and the LAST.
As  the  world celebrates the birth of Christ Jesus on December 25, you and I will now know that it is really not the  correct time of His birth..... For Him to be the first and the last He would have to be born in the first month and die in the last month of the Jewish calendar..( during the time of Passover).  So, now you know the rest of the story.
As you go about your Christmas shopping and enjoying time with family and friends I want to ask you if you would say to them 'MERRY CHRISTMAS" and to all that you meet..  Not just in the month of December but in EVERY month of the year.... Let folks know you love Christ Jesus everyday not just one day of the year.....
Remember to Smile:  It is a free gift from God for you to share with all you meet..
From my house to your  I wish you a MERRY, MERRY  CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!
tenderly with arms wrapped about you, your sister in Christ Jesus, vickie

Listening To God's Voice

Hello Beloved,

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I would like to tell you about two people who live thousands of miles apart.
First Person:
A lady named Lori.  I met Lori in a hardware store about 7-10 years ago. I did not know who she was or that she would turn out to be someone SO SPECIAL. I found out
from her brother ( whom I worked with) that she was a preacher lady.
Second Person:
You have already met this person; " THE YELLOW ROAD WARRIOR", my friend Sherry.
Sherry had come home to be with her family as she was very sick.  I met her in a church meeting about 4 years ago.. As sick as she was ( and it really showed) she was praising and dancing before God.  I looked over at her and fell in love ....I fell in love with the spirit around her..... She was very, very, sick and in all the times following, seeing her in church, she never, never, failed to stand and praise God.
She worships God and prays and teaches what she knows to those who listen...  NO, I don't think she is perfect but I love her anyway. I tell you all that so I can tell you this.
Last year Sherry was in a coma and the family was told that she would not live. So has they made preparations to have life support taken off, she awoke.  She sat up in bed and starting talking to them like nothing had happened.
GOD IS A HEALER.
She was told she had some heart problems and would have to take medicine for that and she was released from the hospital.  She went back to the doctor and was told her heart was fine.
GOD IS A HEALER.
So for the past year she has been teaching a Sunday School class and worshipping and praising God.
On October 30, 2012, Sherry was in a very bad automobile accident.  She broke almost everything about her waist.. A URGENT prayer request went out .  Now this is where my two friends Lori, and Sherry come together.
God knows when one of His children needs Him and He also knows who to send the task to.
We are suppose to be open enough to hear God speak to us. It is when our spirit is talking to us.  We should be listening..  Well, this is what my friend Lori did.
She listened to GOD'S VOICE and prayed .  Night and Day she prayed for Sherry who lived thousands of miles away.  She would keep in touch with me and ask about Sherry so she could pray specifically. 
God brought together two spirits who love Him and obey Him, thousands of miles apart, He brought them together.
Sherry has a long way to go in her recovery but with angels like Lori praying for her it won't take long
So to be God's hand extended.......... listen to His voice and obey.  We don't know how our lives may cross with someone else's life but God does...
Please listen for His voice...... as I will...
God Bless each of you..
Remember to Smile..... It is a free gift from God for you to share with all you meet.

My prayer for today ......

Good Morning Beloved,

I am just thinking out loud today.  I have been listening to the news and reading the news about New York.
About all the problems that they are having because of  Hurricane Sandy that went through and now about the problems they are still facing and with a cold front moving in..  I am so sorry for them but......
Have any of  you read the book " The Harbinger" by Jonathan Cahn?  I have and I can not seem to get what I read out of my mind....   It just makes sense to me... I know that the book is written as fiction but I have also read in a NON fiction book called, The Holy Bible.   Specifically in the book of Isaiah, in the Old Testament..  I believe that the effects talked about in this book are REAL. 
I really pray that people , ( you) would read this book... it is not all that long, only 253 pages and while reading it be sure to have your  Holy Bible beside you, okay?   Things are happening at a very fast rate now..  Jesus Christ our Lord is on His way and I think He will be here VERY soon. 
We all need to be praying for our Nation..  we need to remember that we are suppose to be loving towards each other and praying for each other.  Please let me encourage you to pray..... don't put it off until your ready because then it will be to late...  Do it now....... PLEASE.
Dear Lord Jesus,
What a awesome God you are.  You are Merciful and Just... You are the strength we need and the peace we seek when we are troubled.. Thank you for always being just what we need in all things..  Father, I am asking today for anyone who is reading this to seek You with all their heart.. I am praying for the souls of those who are lost... I pray that peace and strength would be there for the troubled heart...Father, our country is in need of so much prayer... I am praying for the leaders of this country to stop and think before they speak.... I pray that the people of this nation would pray and seek Your will for this nation...  I pray Father for Your guidance in making good sound choices for this nation...... I ask Father for Your forgiveness in every place of my life that was and is wrong before you... I pray that all those who I have hurt or offended will forgive me as  I have forgiven them..   I pray Father for your comfort to be with all those who ask.
I pray that Your will be done.... In the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.   Amen.
Beloved, I hope that you will take time to seek for this country a peace but I pray that you would pray for your own readiness to go to your eternal home... I'm praying that you choose  to go with Jesus Christ...
Remember" Smile , it is a free gift from God to share with all you meet..  God Bless you and be with you.
your sister in Christ... vickie
