A Nativity For Christmas

Scripture from the Bible,

The birth of Christ

Luke 2:1-7

[2:1] In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. [2] (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) [3] And everyone went to his own town to register.

[4] So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. [5] He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. [6] While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, [7] and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

Did you know that 18 prophecies were fulfilled when Jesus was born. Here are the Bible verses for you to read.
Genesis 9:26 Genesis 12:3 Genesis 17:21 Genesis 28:14
Genesis 49:8 Isaiah 11:1 Jeremiah 23:5 Matthew 1:1-17
Daniel 9:24-27 Micah 5:2 Isaiah 7:14 Isaiah 7:14 Psalm 72:10-11 Jeremiah 31:15 Hosea 11:1 Matthew 2:23 Isaiah 53:2 Isaiah 1:1-2.
Seven of the verses relate to his family tree. The rest deal with his birth.
What do these scriptures tell us? That Jesus was the promised Messiah.

Willow Tree® represents qualities and sentiments that help us feel close to others, heal wounds or treasure relationships. Artist Susan Lordi's sculptures communicate elegance, simplicity, peace and serenity. Her hand-carved forms reveal their expression through gestures only... a tilt of the head, placement of the hands, and a turn of the body. "Emotions and feelings are left to the viewer to discern," says Susan, "which makes them very personal."

Mary of Nazareth - From Nativity to Calvary

Directed by Cannes Film Festival award-winner Jean Dellanoy (La Symphonic Pastorale), this profoundly moving feature film traces the life of Mary in her many roles- beloved daughter, wife of Joseph, mother of Jesus, and inspiration to all. Myriam Muller stars as Mary, the simple, young girl from Galilee, visited by the angel, Gabriel, who announces to her in a blinding light that she will give birth to Jesus-an event that will change the course of history forever. Blind to His real mission, the people are sure that Jesus will help them to restore their nation to its former glory. But He is there for something more important. He is not only the Jesus of history but also the Christ of faith. Share Mary's unique perspective as her son touches, heals and ministers to thousands, only to be humiliated and crucified before her very eyes. With over 100 featured actors and 8,500 extras, Mary of Nazareth is beautifully and reverently told, with nothing left out from the Gospels. One can only believe that if she had known all she would suffer as the mother of Jesus, Mary would have given the same response, "I am the Lord's servant."

The Wood is from the tree of life, those who embrace her; those who lay hold of her will be blessed." Proverbs 3:18

The olive tree is native to the Holy Land where it has been cultivated since ancient times. According to historians, the first olive groves took root in the Holy Land and along the coast of the eastern Mediterranean around 4,000 B.C.
The olive tree is a slow growing tree which fills during the first 7 years of it's life. It is especially productive thought out her life. Growing to heights ranging from 10 to 40 feet.
Reaching the age of 200 the trunk disappears, shoots develop at the base of the trunk which eventually grow into a new tree, hence the reputation as the immortal tree.
Between April and June a multitude of small, white perfumed flowers appear in groups under the preceding year's leaves. They only last a few weeks.
One olive is born for about 20 flowers. Normally the first flowering only takes place after about 8 years. The Olive Tree has both a sentimental and religious significance to all nations and all religions.
