Glory to God

One Solitary Life.....
He was born in an obscure village.
He worked in a carpenter shop until he was thirty.
He then became an itinerant preacher.
He never held an office.
He never had a family or owned a house.
He didn't go to college.
He had no credentials but himself.
He was only thirty-three when the public turned against him.
His friends ran away.
He was turned over to his enemies and went through mockery of a trial.
He was nailed to a cross between two thieves.
While he was dying, his executioners gambled for his clothing, the only property he had on earth.
He was laid in a borrowed grave.
Nineteen centuries have come and gone, and today he is the central figure of the human race.
All the armies that ever marched, all the navies that ever sailed, all the paraliments that ever sat, and all the kings that ever reigned have not affected the life of man on this earth as much as that
One Solitary Life...

Just to let people know I didn't come up with all that I'm not that good with words. XD I found it on a card laying on the computer desk I'm not sure who wrote it.

Any way this is a picture I did for church. I had to bring in a gift that I would want to give the Christ child. I decided to use my talents and draw a picture of a lamb. I chose lamb because Jesus is refered to "the lamb of god" in the scriptures. I thought this would be a good Christmas picture to put up.

I hope you'll like it and try to think about the true meaning of Christmas and realize that it's not about presents or parties. Christmas is about Jesus's birth and the wonderful things he has done for the world.

Merry Christmas.
