BOB RAMBO
Hi! I'm Bob Rambo, Lead Pastor at Central United Methodist Church. Last Friday was “Black Friday” - the official start of the Christmas shopping season. Many businesses count on the weeks before Christmas to help them make a profit, to end the year “in the black.” So they offer special sales and promotions to encourage us to shop.
In the midst of all this “hustle and bustle,” it's easy to get caught up buying things we don't need or things we can't afford. It's a good thing to remember that “things” cannot bring us joy; true happiness and contentment come from living life simply, honestly, compassionately. The Apostle Paul reminds us that “Godly living and being content with what we have” is a priceless gift.”
During this holiday season, may you find “space” to celebrate this season for what it truly means - a gracious God who stooped low and came down to earth to live among us.
Make it a GREAT day!
