(Psalm 37:4)…..Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.

What do you enjoy? What is the desire of your life? The worlds is full of things to enjoy, and full of things that strive for our desires.

(Luke 2:10-11)…..Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. 11 “For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
