"The twinkle of holiday lights cover the sin buried beneath. Seldom is the focus of the season on My Son' sacrifice, but on the gifts. Few rejoice in the greatest gift of all, Salvation through the blood of My perfect, precious Lamb. Santa has replaced the Saviour. Children are taught to receive but not to give, to see the glitter but not the glory of the season. My Son gave, but too few seem interested in Him or His gift.
There is quickly coming a time when knowing Him, following Him will be impossible. The road to salvation has been trodden down by greed, gullibility, lies and deceit. O, wayward children repent. Little time remains. Soon merriment will turn to mourning and you are not prepared."
"And joy and gladness are taken away from the fruitful field, and in the vineyards no songs are sung, no cheers are raised; no treader treads out wine in the presses; I have put an end to the shouting." Isaiah 16:10
"For I, the LORD, do not change; therefore you, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed. From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from My statutes and have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you," says the LORD of hosts. "But you say, 'How shall we return?'…" Malachi 3:6
