that not of yourselves: it is the
gift of God: Not of works, lest
any man should boast." (Ro:
mans 6:23, Ephesians 9)
It's for you. God's gift is
free, you cannot repay Him

. with your own gift. God gives

this gift to you, because He
loves you. Receive for yourself
the gift of Jesus Christ and *
allow God to mend your tatter-
ed life and you will have peace,
joy and goodwill toward all men
and you will have -the true
Spirit of Christmas, not just
until Dec. 26 but all year long
and for eternity.

Joyful Journey
In the Age
Of Travel

Historians, tend to divide
history into ages: the bronze
age, the iron.age, right up to

> the space age. This is the clue:

travel.

Moses travelled in the wil-
derness to find the promised
land, Marco Polo went east to
discover the riches of China,
and Columbus went west across
the Atlantic for the same
reason but discovered America.

All ages have seemed to

- embrace travel and with every
journey there was a search for
something more or better.
There was reason and purpose.

Today travel is fast and
easy but it is all just back and ~
forth from one place to another.
Often, the only search is for
one’s luggage.

But also, down through the
ages, there has always been
recognized another journey and
another search — the journey
through life and a search to
fulfil that life. John Bunyan
wrote of this journey and this
search 300 years ago in his
book, The Pilgrim's Progress.

It had all begun 1678 years
before when Mary and Joseph
journeyed from Nazareth to
Bethlehem.

“And she brought forth her

‘first-born son, and wrapped
him in swaddling clothes, and
laid him in a manger; because
there no room for them in
the in

Shepherds came down from
the hills to worship Him and
wise men travelling from the
east came to search out the
promised King.

He, whom they had travel-
led and searched for, "increased

“in wisdom and stature, and in
favour with God and Man,” and
He, who was God's gift to all
peoples, proclaimed “I am the
way, the truth, and the life: no
man comes unto the Father, but
by me,” and “I am come that
they might have life, and that
they might have it more abun-
dantly.” i

For a joyous Christmas
may you search out the scrip-
tures for the above quotes in
the chapters‘of Luke 2 and John
10 and 14, and may you travel
the Jesus way through 1979.
