Merry Christmas Everyone!

I love this song! I share it with you on CHRISTmas because CHRISTmas isn't about Santa or family or presents, but it's also not just about baby Jesus or the wise men or the manger. It's about our sin, it's about God's love, it's about the blood that Jesus shed for us. More than the beginning of the story, it's about the cross. It's the ending to the story on Resurrection Sunday that saves us. CHRISTmas is only the beginning of Jesus' story. He wasn't just born for us, but He lived with us and died for us.

Day 24: Amazing Grace

This is my all time favorite song! Amazing Grace here sung a capella  by the incredible angelic voice of LeAnn Rimes. I have included this song all five years of the countdown. The crystal clear and rich voice she gives to this song gives me goosebumps. Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found. Was blind, but now I see.   Merry CHRISTmas Eve! I'll be back tomorrow with one more special video for you. Until then... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ If you liked this post, read…Seven Reasons Why YOU Should Sign Up for the Art of Eloquence Newsletter!

Day 23: Christmas Shoes

Today's video is one that I can never get through without crying. The precious gift of a child for his mom who may meet Jesus tonight. It's called The CHRISTmas Shoes and sung by Newsong. The video is like a mini movie and just as precious as it could be to show the love of a child for his mother on CHRISTmas Eve. This is the Love of Christ right in the heart of that little boy and how he shows the man in line behind him a glimpse into the kind of love that Jesus has for us. Tomorrow is another great video. Until then... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ If you liked this post, read…Seven Reasons Why YOU Should Sign Up for...

Day 22: Little Drummer Boy

Only a few days left of the 6th Annual Video Countdown to CHRISTmas. Today I bring you the most musically interesting version of Little Drummer Boy by Jars of Clay. I'm afraid the video isn't very visually interesting, but I couldn't find another with this version of this song. I absolutely adore the drums and rhythm. The harmony is quite different as well. x Coming up in the next few days are a few more incredible ways to worship and praise the Lord for the gift of CHRISTmas. Until then... ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ If you liked this post, read…Seven Reasons Why YOU Should Sign Up for the Art of Eloquence Newsletter!
