A merry christmas message

Dear Mr. Toole,

I have something I'd like to say, Merry Christmas. I want to say Merry Christmas to the bag lady, the hooker, the drunk, the junkie, the homeless man on the street, the lesbian lady down road, and the raciallymixed couple that everyone looks down on, do you know that Jesus hung out with folks like you and like them? He still loves you, too. Merry Christmas to the old folks in the nursing home, the sick and suffering in the hospital, and the hurting hiding away at the house, do you know that Jesus still heals all our sickness and takes away our pain?

Merry Christmas to the soldiers on the battle field, the sailors on the sea, and the wounded in the care of doctors all over the world, do you know that Jesus fights for you?

Merry Christmas to the lonely girl, the grieving parent, the angry young man, the abandoned wife, husband, or child, do you know that Jesus will wrap His arms around you and give you peace?

Merry Christmas to the Jewish couple, do you know that Jesus is the Messiah, and He never quit loving you? Merry Christmas to the Muslim, do you know that Jesus died for you, and He never asked you to die to please Him? Merry Christmas to the Hindu, do you know that Jesus is the Bread of Life, and He never said that you had to starve to death while that Brahma cow is dropping dung in front of you? Merry Christmas to the Buddhist monk, do you know that Jesus will give you Living Water, and you will never spiritually thirst again? And, oh yeah, He is also the Light of the World, the Way, the Truth, and the Life, He's all the enlightenment one needs. Merry Christmas to anyone that I left out, do you know that you're not left out in Jesus' thoughts, that He thought of you about the time He cried Father forgive them, and that He never leaves or forsakes you, He is right there beside you even now? Just whisper His name and see if He doesn't answer. For God so loved the world (you) that He gave His only begotten Son (Jesus) that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16.
