Christmas is a wonderful time of Celebration and Thanksgiving for the greatest gift we have ever received Jesus our King of King and Lord of Lords.
Today I want to share with you the message of the Coloured Christmas Balls, I hope you don’t mind my spelling them the Aussie way with a U, yes we do spell some words differently like Saviour ours spelling has a U too . As I thought about the differences in our spelling it reminded me that we are all unique and yes we may also have different cultures and customs but as Christians we are all One in Christ Jesus.
Thank you for sharing with us over the year as we celebrated some of our Aussie Customs and I was so uplifted by some of yours, especially your Thanksgiving Day, when you thank God for His provision. At Christmas time, I give thanks and feel blessed that we can Celebrate Jesus Birthday together, yes all over the World we do share part of Christmas day, the 25th of December which is confirmed in Scripture as the Day Jesus was Born.
Some of the objections not to celebrate at this time of year are answered and refuted on the link below…..

Christian Love in our Unity in Christ Jesus, from both of us – Anne

Really Caleb, thank you, some think we have lost it but we have the same spelling as the K.J.B for most words. I don’t mind American spelling but prefer our own.
Blessings – Anne.

Wow your wonderful Caleb, how does the saying go …. your heart is as big as Texas but I find yours much bigger because it has God’s Love in it.
Ron’s daughter, her husband and children were living in America and we came over to see them, it was the best Holiday we ever had and I still remember it with joy after nearly 30 years, yes we saw all the Tourist attractions which we enjoyed but it was you Americans that won our hearts, you were so friendly and kind to us, I was sad to leave you.
A Christian Blogger started my Blog for me after encouraging me to start one, at first with my being Dyslectic I didn’t feel I could do this, yes there are blessings with my disability but Technology is very hard for me, the same as maths and spelling. I did change the theme not long after it was finished and added to the name of my Blog which God gave me but I still didn’t know I was in America, when I found out I was so excited.
I have had problems but it is still very encouraging and uplifting to share with Americans and of course others from all over the world but I do find it hard that unlike you most won’t seek to resolve Biblical differences and some even behave very rudely, perhaps this is why there is so much error circulating, division comes from deception not resolution by God’s Truth and His Truth is always motivated by Love and this is what binds us together until error is resolved and this is always by the conformation of Scripture through the empowering of The Holy Spirit, as Jesus leads us into all Truth, yes I’m still learning, I’m not perfected in Love yet but I’m aiming for it..
You have won my heart Caleb, if I had a son I would be thankful if he was just like you, I have felt this before about a few other young men who Blog and woman too as my daughters but you are special, you have a zeal for your faith that I very much respect, no I don’t accept error and I test the Spirit but we are all people of worth in God’s eyes or He would not have sent Jesus, He Loved the world. He does know those who are His and those who are not but Love always Hopes and never gives up, it is not His will anyone perishes, meaning to be eternally seperated from Him, it’s their choice. He reaches out with His Truth to those who Seek, Ask and Knock and He is always willing to forgive those who repent and so turn away from evil and seek to do good and yes they all go together.
I Love you in Christ Jesus Caleb and we both appreciate your caring heart too – Anne.

I am speechless. Thank you for your loving words. They moved me so deeply. You have such a beautiful soul and a caring heart. God Bless you!!! It is truly a blessing sharing our experiences and love for Christ through blogging but most importantly building that body of Christ with such kindness and caring as you always show. I still have a long way ahead in my journey and much to mature and grow in humility and patience but I am trusting in Jesus that I can make progress big and small each day! So keep me in your prayers!
God bless you and I wish you and Ron and your whole family a very Merry Christmas, full of joy, health and love!

Yes Anne the coloured balls we use at Christmas are a powerful reminder of Gods beauty.What if each one was the same bland colour we wouldn’t be drawn to them, it`s the colours that catch the eye. Just as He has made each of us different we are attractive to Him. So this Christmas let each of us be so attractive to others in our witness for Him. So we can be bringing the Light of Christ into a darkened world.
Blessings

The message is great and the Christmas spirit, been trying to get in the spirit this year I want too. But it is hard. The more I see Of it around, the more I miss the Christmases we had when we were young children. Night spent dreaming of Christmas and watching the decoration go up along the River Torrens. You know for a religious community now where I live there is not much in the line of decoration about

Hi Barb, thanks for visiting, it’s always good to share with you, I just wish I could make you a cuppa, perhaps if you visit the link below again, we can pretend. I will put the jug on and cut some Christmas cake for us, that is if it is alright with Jim.
A Cuppa – https://freedomborn.wordpress.com/2012/03/23/a-cup-of-coffee/
Yes it’s True as you shared Barb, Christmas for some us lost it’s glow but as we talked about last year on your other Blog, if their focus was on a Children’s Fairy Tale called Santa Clause then it is best forgotten because in comparison to what Christmas really represents as confirmed in Scripture, it’s a dead end and yes for Adults who hold onto a Secular Christmas, it will soon loose it’s Sparkle, where our heart focus is depends if it is a Special Day for us.

Thank you Ellie for visiting our Blog Home and sharing, it is always good to hear your response to what is shared.
Yes the Christmas Balls like many of the other Christmas symbols used today are not only Pretty and bright with the festive coloures they can have wonderful Spiritual Truth but it depends on our hearts focus which God sees and when it is on His Son Jesus Christ He rejoices with us.
Christian Love and many Blessings for Christmas – Anne
