Greetings COTR people!
Hello COTR people! Has anyone told you today that Jesus loves you? Jesus loves you! I hope your week is going well. The Christmas season is in full swing. Don’t let all the activity rob you of the joy of Christmas. Even as I enjoy the presents, the tree and the time with family, I love the fact that the birth of Jesus prepares me for the new beginnings of the new year. Jesus’ birth was the fulfillment of hundreds of years of prophecy that set an eternal hope in the hearts of the Jewish people that the Messiah would one day come. This Christmas, remember that the birth of Christ and the coming of the new year means that you can have a fresh start this coming year. God is a God not only of the second chance, for you he may be the God of the next chance! Keep in mind the great things happening this week for you and you family:
