What are you anticipating this Christmas? Is your waiting filled with wonder or anxiety? There are plenty of individuals and communities suffering this Christmas. Their pain and struggles do not minimize our own struggles, nor do they minimize God’s loving care. He has promised to NEVER leave us or abandon us. Despite being the infinite Creator, He is intimately acquainted with our struggles.
“Father in heaven, we ask that this Christmas, you would seal deep within our souls the meaning of Your Son’s coming.
Jesus came not to entertain. He came not merely to make a great story.
He came to restore us rebels to You our God. Advent is very personal.
Draw us close to the heart of Christ, which is Your own heart, and make His first advent, in all its realness and substance, more real in our lives. Amen”. By David Mathis
