Twas the night before
Christmas and all through the house—
Wait! What about the first
ever Christmas story? Sure, we all know
the Christmas that is celebrated today with stockings hung by the chimney,
anxious children sleeping with one eye open while they wait to hear the
footsteps of Santa Claus – but where did it all originate?
For tonight is a special
night as Mary already knew, God’s son, baby Jesus is born for me and you. This
is the true story of the first ever Christmas: the birth of God’s only son,
Jesus!
We still celebrate Jesus’ birthday even two thousand years later, with
gifts to each other, but we need to remember the real reason and greatest gift
of all – the birth of our Lord and Savior.
Glenda resides in Mathews,
VA. and currently serves as Admin. Sec. to Ebenezer Baptist Church. She has
been married to her high school sweetheart Stanford for 42 years. God has
blessed them with a wonderful daughter Christa, son-in-law Robert, and two
grandchildren, Charis who calls her “Mimi,” and Caleb who lives with Jesus in Heaven.
The family enjoys snow skiing, boating and swimming. Together, they share a
powerful Christian faith.
In 2012, over the course of 6 weeks, God spoke
this book to her, and fulfilled her heart’s desire of writing a children’s book.
She hopes that you and your children not only enjoy reading the REAL Christmas
story, but know the peace, love and joy that came into the world on that very
first Christmas!
