As promised, here is the first of several blog postings by my very talented creative writing students.  It is a joy and a delight to be their teacher and their mentor.  I know that you will be blessed by their words.  Enjoy!

Jesus Our Friend 

When Jesus came into this world in human form, He changed our lives with God forever. We were adopted into God’s family. And now we have eternal life with our Father in heaven.

He gave us Christmas gifts, which only some of us have opened- His friendship and love. He experienced being a human and how much we needed a Savior. We also needed to be loved and we all need a friend.

You couldn’t have a better friend. He listens when you talk, encourages you when you need encouraging and He forgives your every fault. Jesus loves you as a friend and wants the best for you. There is no jealousy in Him.

You will never be alone on Christmas. He is with you every step of the way.

Enter more deeply into the friendship you have with Jesus and celebrate this Christmas season.

So remember while December

Brings the only Christmas day,

In the year let there be Christmas

In the things you do and say.

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will accomplish this.” Isaiah 9:6-7

BIO- Hi, my name is Estera.  This year I participated in Nanowrimo and won! I wrote over 50 000 words. My friends, family and my teacher {Mrs. Dove} cheered me on and supported me through everything. Thank you.
