The CHRISTmas Nail
Recently one of the women on the Titus Loop shared that they did a Christmas nail. Now her husband hides the nail on the tree for the children to find.
I thought the idea was great and went out today and bought some nails about 4" long with a large head. I bought some white and red paint. I bought thin gold ribbon and some gold cord. I bought poster board.
From below you will see what I did with this. I am sending them out to various friends in my Christmas cards. Just a reminder of what Christmas is truly about!! God bless!!!!
Acts 2:22-23 Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by God with miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through Him in your midst, just as you yourselves know- this Man, delivered over by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God, you nailed by the hands of godless men and put Him to death.

Dear Friend,
Enclosed is a Christmas Nail. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus, let us not forget that the baby in the manager was God incarnate. That He grew up and taught us of God and His Ways. That for our sins, He suffered and died. For without Easter there would not be a celebration at Christmas!
The nail is painted white to remind us that He was pure and without sin...
1 John 3:5 You know that He appeared in order to take away sins; and in Him there is no sin.
The tip of the nail is red to remind us that it was because of His shedding of His blood we have forgiveness! Ephesians 1:7 In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace.
The gold bow is to remind us that our salvation is a gift freely given to us..
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Attached is the receipt of the debt that Christ paid for us! Col 2:14 Having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has taken ti out of way, having nailed it to the cross.
So hang your nail on your tree this year and remember the gift that Christmas brought!
May you share this gift with others!
