As we celebrate Christ’s birth this Christmas season, let us all remember why He was born. Christ came to give new life.
His love is a gift that breaks into the dark places of the soul and brings forth light. He strengthens us when we’re weak. He fills us with love when we’re loveless. He soothes our sorrows when we’re mourning. He heals the heart when it’s broken. He gives us joy in all circumstances and gives us the desires of our hearts as we find our delight in Him. He fills us with an inexpressible peacefulness that transcends all understanding. He restores the broken things and makes beauty out of our mistakes.
He is the redeemer of every painful trial we’ll ever face.
God brought forth Christ the Messiah for all people, so that we could live eternally in hope and peace no matter how dark it becomes in the world. His light overcomes all darkness and His love is never-ending. Without a doubt, the love of Christ is the best and most indescribable gift we’ll ever receive.
Nothing else can satisfy our longings. Only Jesus Christ is able to meet our deepest needs and it’s in Him alone we find true contentment.
May we keep Christ the focus of our holiday festivities and treasure the true meaning of Christmas.
Beloved Jesus,
Thank You for Your love, kindness, and mercy. Help us to keep our priorities straight in the midst of busy days. Let us be keenly aware of Your love and light this Christmas season. Let us rejoice over the gifts You have given us through a loving relationship with You. We pray in Your name. Amen.
“Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!”

Laloni,
I’m blessed by your comment. I visited your website and I loved seeing your “Christ in Christmas” storybook for children. The candle lighting and sharing the Christmas story is truly a wonderful tradition for the family.
Thanks and may Christ bless you always!
