PEACE BE WITH YOU

[farley ferdinand]

As you well know, we are getting closer to my
birthday. Every year there is a celebration in my
honor and I think that this year the celebration will
be repeated.

During this time there are many people shopping for
gifts, there are many radio announcements, TV
commercials, and in every part of the world everyone
is talking that my birthday is getting closer and
closer.

It is really very nice to know, that at least once a
year, some people think of me.

As you know, the celebration of my birthday began many
years ago.

At first people seemed to understand and be thankful
of all that I did for them, but in these times, no one
seems to know the reason for the celebration.

Family and friends get together and have a lot of fun,
but they don't know the meaning of the celebration. I
remember that last year there was a great feast in my
honor. The dinner table was full of delicious
foods,pastries, fruits, assorted nuts and chocolates.
The decorations were exquisite and there were many,
many beautifully wrapped gifts.

But, do you want to know something? I wasn't invited.

I was the guest of honor and they didn't remember to
send me an
invitation.

The party was for me, but when that great day came, I
was left outside,they closed the door in my face ..
and I wanted to be with them and share their table.

In truth, that didn't surprise me because in the last
few years all close their doors to me. Since I wasn't
invited, I decided to enter the party without making
any noise. I went in and stood in a corner.

They were all drinking; there were some who were drunk
and telling jokes and laughing at everything. They
were having a grand time.

To top it all, this big fat man all dressed in red
wearing a long white beard entered the room yelling
Ho-Ho-Ho! He seemed drunk. He sat on the sofa and all
the children ran to him, saying: "Santa Claus, Santa
Claus" as if the party were in his honor!

At midnight all the people began to hug each other; I
extended my arms waiting for someone to hug me and do
you know no-one hugged me.

Suddenly they all began to share gifts. They opened
them one by one with great expectation. When all had
been opened, I looked to see if, maybe, there was one
for me. What would you feel if on your birthday
everybody
shared gifts and you did not get one?

I then understood that I was unwanted at that party
and quietly left.

Every year it gets worse. People only remember the
gifts, the parties, to eat and drink, and nobody
remembers me.

I would like this Christmas that you allow me to enter
into your life.

I would like that you recognize the fact that almost
two thousand years ago I came to this world to give my
life for you, on the cross, to save you.

Today, I only want that you believe this with all your
heart.

I want to share something with you. As many didn't
invite me to their party,I will have my own
celebration, a grandiose party that no one has ever
imagined,
a spectacular party. I'm still making the final
arrangements. .

Today I am sending out many invitations and there is
an invitation for you. I want to know if you wish to
attend and I will make a reservation for you and write
your name with golden letters in my great guest book.

Only those on the guest list will be invited to the
party.

Those who don't answer the invite, will be left
outside. Be prepared because when all is ready you
will be part of my great party.

See you soon. I Love you!

Jesus
