Merry Christmas &
Happy New Year
AXIOM CHIROPRACTIC CENTERInstead of advising people to be on the lookout for more
diseases when they choose to take medicines what if doctor ad-vised you to find a new hobby or life interests because the likely side effect from their treatment was a much happier, healthier lifestyle with more energy and less fatigue that can be better
spent on friends and family matters! That is the side effect of our treatment plans!
We dont have to go any further than watching their own commercials to know that prescription drugs come with a multi-tude of side effects...including death. Medical errors of all kinds now account as the third leading cause of death in the US. At
our practice we educate our patients to avoid the origins of their diseases, then utilize a variety of non-invasive treatments
that are customized to their healthcare needs and holistic when-ever possible.
The only side effect is you enjoying the fruits of better health. Wouldnt you like to have better physical functions and live pain free? Wouldnt you want to stop taking prescription
drugs? Whats the downside? We can help you!

I cant promise pre-Christmas delivery, because depending on where its being shipped, it could take 5 to 10 days to arrive at your door, but it is still great program for customers to take advantage of, Corey comments. Details and the catalogue at www.furniturehouseofcarrollton.com for your convenience, but if is easier, we would love for you to stop by and let us lend our experience and expertise to you.
Did you know that nationally 57% of people buy gifts for themselves at Christ-mas? Imagine sharing new recliners with each other or enjoying the tremendous health benefits of an adjustable mattress?
You may have company coming for the holidays and you need to add a mattress for them. Rather than buying a mattress for the guest room, move your current mattress to the guest room and buy a new superior Serta mattress at great low prices during De-cember for yourself that allows you to sleep and live better! But let me sweeten the pot, so to speak, by purchasing from our Serta iComfort sleep system or our Serta iSeries Intelligent Comfort and Individual Support series, you can get a FREE adjustable bed upgrade on many models. Stop by and find out how wonderful sleeping can be!
One new addition to The Furniture House this holiday season are hand- crafted Solid Oak Rocking Chairs by USA
manufacturer Troutman. They are offered in a variety of finishes. Yes, it is important for you to know that they really are hand-crafted from select oak and they offer no-glue con-struction, Corey remarked. But what will make you absolutely want one is the unique Lumbar construction. Not only do these rockers offer superior quality than those you see at big box stores and even chain restau-rants, but there is no comparison to how these rockers sit. But dont take my word for it, stop and Sit the Difference. These chairs are awesome and if you come by and sit in them, I can assure you Christmas Eve you will be sitting in one waiting for Santa!
One of the popular purchases during the holiday season is recliners and reclining sofa. Corey offers Southern Motion for your reclining needs, where they are all made here in the southeast. They, not only offer power reclining pieces that recline with the touch of a button, but also power headrests, as well as top-grain leather. If you have back or neck problems or simply have not found a recliner that fits you properly, this new feature solves your problems. After sitting in it, you can customize the fit of the headrest with the simple touch of a button. Recliners, similar to mattresses, are more enjoyable and effec-tive when they fit you properly. That is why we have a huge selection of recliners in stock in both fabrics and in leather. Stop by and let us find the right recliner that allows you to sleep through your favorite program on TV. And yes you can get 0% financing* on
these as well. And you can have it in your home for Christmas. Consider buying two so you dont fight over them.
Corey has a showroom and ware-house full of furniture for your holiday needs, whether for your home or as a gift. Whether you need a Cheval mirror, a lamp, a bedroom suite, or dining group, it is ready and waiting for you. Let me caution that with the holidays and increased business, it is unlikely we or anyone else can deliver a custom-ordered piece before Christmas. We do focus and celebrate getting you exactly what you want and if Christmas delivery is not a factor, please stop by and we can work with you to custom order you exactly what you want.
In addition to the 0% financing and other payment plans, they offer white glove delivery service.

The holiday season can be very dif-ficult for many people as they experience numerous negative emotions such as de-pression, shame, guilt, anxiety, loneliness, and emptiness. Christmas should be a time of happiness and celebration, for we are the reason for Christmas, God sent His son to save us at Christmas. Due to the commer-cialization of Christmas, many of us forget that Christmas is really the expression of Gods love for us, not the gifts, presents, or the decorations.
As Christians, we too often forget Gods love for us most especially at Christmas, as we tend to focus on what we dont have, what we cant give, who has left us, or what we have lost, or what we failed to accomplish as opposed to counting our blessing, the most important one being Christ.
The foundation of every born-again Christian is because God loved us enough to give His only begotten son for us. If He did not spare His son from us, what will He withhold from us? Can you imagine your child asking for permission to drink water in your home? Many of us behave like the prodigal sons brother, who on the return of his brother accused God of rejoicing over him and depriving him, yet he was the

one who failed to receive, God responded in this manner; And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine. (Luke15:31 KJV)
The devil knows that when we live in the awareness of Gods love for us we are unstop-pable. An attack on our identity is cen-tral to many of the trials Chris-tians experience. Depression makes us feel inadequate, addiction makes us feel ashamed, guilty, filthy, and so we hide, abuse makes us feel dirty and ashamed, anxiety takes away our peace and rejection makes us feel broken.
The devil wants Christians to doubt who they are and doubt Gods love for them. He attacks in a very subtle manner, as he did with Adam and Eve. The goal of the trials and tribulations, is simply to shift our focus from God to ourselves; like Peter, who sank once his focus shifted from Christ, after
successfully walking on water; Something similar happened to Adam and Eve, their eyes opened to their shortcomings and they suddenly realized they were naked and felt ashamed hence they hid from God. The emotions of shame, inferiority, fear, inad-
equacy, and guilt are accusatory and are emotions that the devil employs in ac-cusing Christian. Shame, inferior-ity, inadequacy, fear, and guilt make people hide, as they
tend to make us feel undeserving and alone. Jesus did not come to condemn us but to convict us unto repentance.
After Adam and Eve ate the fruit their perspective changed, they became more aware of their nakedness and decided to help themselves instead of relying on God, they made themselves fig leaves, which were not even sufficient to keep them warm. They hid from God; and they hid from their solution, God is love, and as love, He covers a multi-tude of sins. In the nature of true love, He sought them out and covered their sins.
Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins. (Proverbs10:12 KJV)
Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them. (Genesis3: 21 KJV)
Christmas is a time for all Christians to rejoice and focus on the gift. Jesus was born to save us because God loves us. We should focus on the full benefit of our new lives in Christ and Gods love for us.
He sent his son because of His love...But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the wash-ing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; (Titus3: 4-5 KJV)
Our salvation is as a result of His love for usBut God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: (Ephesians 2: 4-6 KJV)
We are blessed and not cursed because He loves usNevertheless the Lord thy God would not hearken unto Balaam; but the Lord

thy God turned the curse into a blessing unto thee, because the Lord thy God loved thee. (Deuteronomy 23:5 KJV)
Because He loves us, He will establish usBlessed be the Lord thy God, which delighted in thee to set thee on his throne, to be king for the Lord thy God: because thy God loved Israel, to establish them for ever, therefore made he thee king over them, to do judgment and justice. (2 Chronicles 9: 8 KJV)
We can love because He loves usBe-loved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. (1 John 4: 7-8 KJV)
He will deliver us because of His love...Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. (Psalms 91:14 KJV)
We overcome because of His love...Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8: 7-39 KJV)
He cares for us and will provide for
usBut I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him. Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God? But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. (Luke12:5-7 KJV)
Finally, we need to remain Gods loveKeep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. (Jude1:21 KJV) Remember that Christmas is a true expression of Gods love for you, you have the Ultimate gift, Christ.
