ANNOUNCE THE BIRTH

December 3, 2023

Nancie and I had two boys.  When Nancie was pregnant a third time, people were asking me, “So, you’re wanting to have a girl!”  I honestly replied, “We’ll be happy with whatever it is, boy or girl.”  I thought Nancie felt the same way.

When the baby was born the doctor was in the midst of a whole string of deliveries, so he simply laid the baby on Nancie’s chest and took off for the next delivery.  She asked, “What is it?”  I said, “I don’t know.”  So, she lifted up the baby, saw that it was female, and said, “It’s a girl!”  She had so much joy in her voice that I cried.  I hadn’t realized how much she wanted a girl!

Moving ahead a few decades, one day my oldest son and his wife invited Nancie and me out for lunch.  There Jonathan and Kristen broke the news that she was going to have a baby, our first grandson.  Again, I cried.

These were tears of pure joy.  Few things are more wonderful than a birth.  Sunday I’m preaching on “Announce the Birth” from Luke 1:26-38.  We’ll talk about “Announce Fearlessness,” verses 26-30; “Announce Christ’s Endless Reign,” verses 31-33; and “Announce the Power of God Working through Us,” verses 34-38.  Please come Sunday and help us celebrate the greatest birth of all time, the birth of Jesus.

Also, make sure you sign up to help with our Nativity.  We need help setting up the backdrops and electrical aspects, the costumes and props, and we need actors and greeters.  Also, invite everyone you can to come to the event December 15-17, 7:00-9:00.  It’s a great way to announce that special birth!

Love,

Jim Meek
