Dear friends in Christ,

The fact that there was no room for Jesus, Mary, and Joseph in the inn at Bethlehem on the first Christmas should make us wonder, because the birth of Christ was foreseen and planned by God from all eternity. Did God, then, forget to make room for his only Son? How is it possible that there was no room, when the child born at Christmas owns the inn, and Bethlehem, and the world, and every inch of room in the whole universe. This demonstrates that the world makes no room for the God who created it. There was no room in the inn because God wanted to show that His Son comes as a Savior, to reconcile a world that is at enmity with God. The ultimate purpose of Jesus was to give His life for you and me on the cross!

So giving yourself away and generously sharing your abundance with the world is the highest purpose in life.

Contrary to popular culture, the life you've always wanted isn't found in career choice, personal achievements, or even the amount of money you may amass in a lifetime. Instead, it's found in one of the simplest, yet most challenging, principles ever lived out by Jesus.

“The measure of a life, after all, is not its duration, but its donation.” Read more...
