Me, the more I act and you do wonderous things.<br />

Little ones, I am God. Why do you want to act in your weak<br />

ways? I wait to act out <strong>of</strong> you! You do not act. Let Me do it through<br />

you! The more you die to yourself, the greater your success. Be<br />

selfless and full <strong>of</strong> Me.<br />

God’s Blue Book 159<br />

You Are Raising Your Children Without God<br />

5:00 a.m.<br />

This is the day <strong>of</strong> the Lord. Slowly approaches My day, My birth.<br />

I am Jesus, Your Savior. I come as a little baby to save a big world.<br />

How could such a little one save a world and all those to come?<br />

This little one, My child, is God-made-man <strong>of</strong> Mary, just a baby coming<br />

in such silence, yet He comes with the might to save the world<br />

from its sin. He comes into a little stable and He comes without any<br />

proclamations from mankind. The beasts surround Him, the King <strong>of</strong><br />

Glory. His court is made up <strong>of</strong> cows and sheep and His bed is dirty<br />

hay. Oh, how we await the birth <strong>of</strong> a baby. Everyone is eager to<br />

know <strong>of</strong> His arrival. All is ready, yet Mary does not have a place to<br />

lay her child. There is not room for them except with the beasts <strong>of</strong><br />

the stable. Did Mary know that Jesus would be born in such poverty?<br />

She has said “yes” to all the events that are to happen. This is<br />

her firstborn baby and there is not a place for them.<br />

R.What things we are so eager to surround ourselves with and God<br />

is born in such poverty under the eyes <strong>of</strong> animals! The choirs <strong>of</strong><br />

angels sing, but the world is numb to the event. Is this not how it<br />

is 2000 years later? It is <strong>Christ</strong>mas Saturday, yet where are the<br />

statues and the stables remembering <strong>Christ</strong>’s birth? Can you find<br />

any remembrances in stores? They are too busy. You cannot go<br />

and pay except for waiting in line at the money counter, a line to<br />

buy treasures, while the Son <strong>of</strong> Man waits in tabernacles all over<br />

the world and who comes?<br />

Is the world today so blind that its people call this Day<br />

<strong>Christ</strong>mas, but who is talking about <strong>Christ</strong>? Little snowmen,<br />

reindeer, Santa Claus, little sleds, red and green, and bells and<br />

holly. Should not every little detail be tended to? The family is all<br />

prepared. Gifts are wrapped to perfection yet where is the baby?<br />

Is a picture <strong>of</strong> <strong>Christ</strong> on any paper or magazine? He, the King <strong>of</strong><br />

Glory, sits alone in every church while people wait in line with<br />

batteries and cards and wrap. How long do they wait in that<br />

line? Does it matter? <strong>Christ</strong>mas is the most important event <strong>of</strong><br />

the year to them and every detail must be tended to.
