Take the Chance Week #4

TAKE THE CHANCE WEEK #4

Hey everybody! It's me- Amy! I know I haven't been posting, and it's entirely MY FAULT. But I've been so caught up in the Holidays: Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Which reminds me....This weeks theme? Don't let Christmas pass you by. 

   HEY! WELCOME BACK TO TAKE THE CHANCE WEEK 4! This week we are doing a theme on 'Don't Let christmas pass you by'. in honor of the season, of course. i hope this message carries on to the rest of your week. lets do a little poem:

 When you Take the Chance

Things May Happen

The words take affect like a dove

You Never knew could have

People who can't love, learn how to love

What happens when you start to care?

Stop the bullying, the pushing the shoves

And open up your heart, and really SHARE 

A little inspirational message. On with our actual thing. 

THINK ABOUT IT: 

I really want you to look at this, seeing as I spent half an hour on it,
but really look at it and see if this applies to YOU. 

The picture above applies to a lot of people. Jesus is only 20% of what you think of Christmas and Presents are a HUGE part of it! (Including other items like a Christmas Tree or decorations.) The Needy people like Operation Christmas Child is only maybe 20% (maybe larger) and the kids are a big part of it too. What happened to this era?

Before you get too comfortable, this is going to be a short week. I want you to think about that. Here's the story lesson:

God created us. Out of molecules and atoms and stuff. We can call it STUFF. And he loved us SO much- he BECAME  STUFF! He became human, he became the same stuff that makes up our iPhones, our own hand or your car. So yes, God does care about your iPhone, because he cares about STUFF. And he sent his son to die for us- the BIGGEST present of all! TO US. FOR US. And thats the ultimate sacrifice. And so, what I'm trying to say is you don't need to make excuses to God. Don't say, "Well I got mad at so and so because..." No. Don't do that. He knows, he loved us SO much, he literally, became STUFF. He went down from being Almight God who rules everything to become STUFF. Imagine how complex your body is though. God made you. You've got a heart, a soul, fingers and body made of really awesome bones. Now- think about your iPads and iPods. Scientists could NEVER make something THAT complex. And, your human eye sees with 576 Mega pixels or something like that. iPhones only have like 8. How cool is that? A computer could never generate data like that and be able to see through the camera or anything that fast. It would take A LONG TIME. So- don't let this Christmas pass you by. All the stress from trying to buy the perfect presents for loved ones, or working extra for a little more money to make your family happy- remember that this holiday is supposed to be happy. DON'T FORGET. I'll be back next week. So, take this lesson and see how you could change your week from it. don't forget to: WHAT IF YOU....TAKE THE CHANCE?
