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

Share this message with your loved ones, before Christmas.
