Christmas has come again. Its a time

of reunions, parties, gifts, and attending

church. Its actually the time one can

attend church every day and not be told

ones head already bumped heaven. Yes,

Christmas is here, and I cant thank God

enough for the reason we celebrate it.

In 2 Samuel 7:12-16, God had a

message for King David:

12 When your days are overand you rest

with your ancestors, I will raise up youroffspring to succeed you, your own flesh and

blood, and I will establish his kingdom. 13 Heis the one who will build a house for myName, and I will establish the throne of hiskingdom forever. 14 I will be his father, and hewill be my son. When he does wrong, I will

punish him with a rod wielded by men, withfloggings inflicted by human hands. 15 But my

love will never be taken away from him, as Itook it away from Saul, whom I removedfrom before you. 16 Your house and your

kingdom will endure forever before me ; yourthrone will be established forever.

This text assures us three things:

1. Peace (vv. 12-13)

For those who are facing death, or

have experienced the tragedy of a

departed loved one, Gods plan doesnt

change even when we die. I will push

liberally with the thought that sometimes

days are over might not be physical for

us, but geographical. There are many of

us, our friends, family, who have gone

away for work. This has meant

sacrificing relationships. Are you

worried who will take care of your

loved ones while youre gone? God

is there. He has them in His hands.

2. Love (vv. 14-15)

Ive always believed that God

had a plan, but I used to think that

if I make a mistake, Gods Plan A

becomes Plan B. Walking on egg

shells, I got some things right, but

not everything, and eventually, the

pressure to not make mistakes set

me up for greater mistakes. If what

I thought was correct, then Gods

Plan wont only be B for me but

will go way past Z, eventually

leading me to despair whether Hes

still got me in His plans. The Good

News is yes, He does. This does not

mean we are free from Gods

discipline, but even His discipline

shows that His love is always there.

Have you committed mistake/s and

you feel like this has separated you

from God? Consider these mistakes

as proof of our need for a Savior.

The Good News is He has come.

3. Joy (v. 16)

Many of us work hard to amount to

something, whether it be fortune, fame

or even to matter to our family. We al

want this, and to a certain extent, part o

life is doing our best to succeed. How

wonderful it is to know then that God

wants to give us this, and when He

does, He means forever? This takes

unnecessary pressure off our backs and

ushers in joy beyond what we can ever

imagine and earn for ourselves. Are you

sad, lonely, or struggling waiting for

something for a long, long, time? Don

be. God has your house taken cared of

If you feel you have waited long

imagine God waiting forever to have us.

The angel in Luke 2:10-11 got it righ

when he said, Do not be afraid. I bring

you good news that will cause great joy

for all the people.Today in the town o

David a Savior has been born to you.

Jesus birth shows us that with

Christmas, there is no plan B. Together

let us trust in His great faithfulness.

I wish you a blessed holiday season

May the Lords peace, love, and joy, be

upon you, now as forever. Amen.

With Christmas,

There is No Plan B

by Zuriel BernardinoIve always believed that God has a plan for

my life, but I used to think that if I make a

mistake, Gods Plan A becomes Plan B.Christmas proves Ive never been so wrong.
