Today marks the end of the year 2008, and we find ourselves facing a brand new year. Last year was one filled with many challenges, and unrest all over the world, including a large number of natural disaters everywhere. For this cause so many of us are looking to the new year as one that will bring forth changes for the better.
Many of us are looking forward to a time of new beginings, and a deeper commitment to the things that matters most. It is a time when we can resolve to be all that we can be for the Lord.
For those of us who are called by the name of Christ, we are reminded that we are indeed the salt of the Earth. Therefore, let us be mindful of our real purpose in being here, and allow ourselves to be used of our Heavenly Father to do His most holy will.
We here at Christ Messenger Ministries, wish you and yours a very blessed new year, and may God be with you to give you guidance and direction thru the coming year. May the Lord ever bless and keep you is our prayer.

For those of us who are called by His great name: Christians, because we believe and follow Him. It is a time to stand up for, what we believe, as well as to show forth the love of Jesus Christ. Christianity is a way of life that cannot be stopped. many have tried to stop it to no avail, and many others will do so still unsuccesfully. "For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ", and will not be silenced.
So, as we celebrate Christmas this year, remember that Jesus is the Christ in Christmas. Let us not get caught up in commercialism, nor...
