In 1847, a French poet was asked by a clergyman to write a poem for Christmas mass. Using the gospel of Luke, he imagined witnessing the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem. “Cantique de Noel” or “O Holy Night” was the product of his inspiration. What made that night so holy, so divine?http://www.wiredalive.com

Like Christmas lights on a house, neighborhood, and city is visible; so every Jesus follower should shine bright in this dark world. When He was here He was the Light of the world. With Him in us we are lights in this world. Let your light shine!http://www.wiredalive.com

When we accept Jesus' invitation to follow Him, nothing else really matters except for people.http://www.wiredalive.com

You've probably heard someone say or maybe you've even said it yourself, "Well, I guess this is my cross to bear". Fortunately, that's not what Jesus meant when he instructed us to take up our cross.http://www.wiredalive.com

Whether it's a concert, conference, or football game chances are we are just another face in the crowd. That's okay for an event, but Jesus invites us to more than just being another face in the crowd.http://www.wiredalive.com

There should be a huge contrast between who we used to be and who we are now in Christ. Your past and your failures are not you. In Christ you have a new life with a hope and future. It's out with the old and in with new!http://www.wiredalive.com

Have you ever invited someone to stay a few days at your house only to regret that decision afterwards? They make themselves at home, but not in a good way. They don't clean their dirty dishes. They leave clothes lying around. They eat all your food. The Holy Spirit makes Himself at home in our lives, but in a good way.http://www.wiredalive.com

Have you ever had to rely on someone to lead you because you didn't know where a place was located? It can be real nerve wracking not to be in control. It can also be very rewarding.http://www.wiredalive.com

There's an elephant in the room. You've heard that expression before haven't you? It's that something nobody wants to address or discuss. There's something Jesus instructed His followers to do, but many Christians choose not to talk about it. What is the elephant in the room?!http://www.wiredalive.com
