In order to prepare our hearts for Jesus, during Advent 2023
for this upcoming 
CHRISTmas
we must come
to know
JESUS
in all His many facets
from His earthly birth to His heavenly reign
and one day (soon, I hope)
His Glorious Return.
Spend more time 
WITH JESUS
putting
CHRIST
back into your
CHRISTmas
Celebrations
HE is the GREATEST GIFT!
HIS PRESENCE is our best present!
Open your heart and mind to
JESUS
ask Him(if you haven't)
to be Your personal Lord & Savior
and if you might have forgotten spending time with Him,
you can start again (and again and again)
until you receive Him fully.
Start this Advent 
to "fall in love" with
the One Who Changed Everything
just BELIEVE, RECEIVE and ADMIT your need for
JESUS
because Eternal Life, knowing the Father God, only comes through
knowing His Son, Jesus
then allow His Holy Spirit to fill you
(over and over)
as you, too, become an
OVERCOMER
through Jesus
and the power of the
HOLY SPIRIT
in you
