Presidential Message -- Merry Christmas

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21 /Standard Newswire/ -- the following is a message from President Bush: 

Christmas 2007

"But the angel said to her, 'Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God.  You will be with child and give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus.  He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High…his kingdom will never end.'"

                                                                                             Luke 1:30-33

During the Christmas season, our thoughts turn to the source of joy and hope born in a humble manger on a holy night more than 2,000 years ago.  Each year, Christians everywhere celebrate this single life that changed the world and continues to change hearts today.  The simple and inspiring story of the birth of Jesus fills our souls with gratitude for the many blessings in our lives and promises that God's purpose is justice and His plan is peace. 

At this special time of year, we give thanks for Christ's message of love and mercy, and we are reminded of our responsibility to serve.  America is blessed to have fine citizens who reach out with a compassionate hand to help brothers and sisters in need.  We also remember our brave men and women in uniform who have volunteered to defend us in distant lands.  Many of those who have answered the call of duty will spend Christmas far from home and separated from family.  We honor their sacrifice, ask God to watch over them and their families, and pray for their safe return.

Christmas is a time to rejoice and remember the birth of Jesus Christ.  Laura and I pray your Christmas will be blessed with family and fellowship, and we wish you a day of glad tidings.  Merry Christmas.

GEORGE W. BUSH
