Sometimes situations in life are all about perspective. Different perspectives can give us different understanding. Events in our lives can remind us that we may see things differently, but, in the end, we need to comprehend the true meaning for understanding. As we approach Christmas and the Light that is Jesus Christ entering the world, we can take time to reflect, pray, and ask God to help us comprehend those events from long ago that still impact us today!
God sent Jesus to bring the Light into the world. Even though Jesus became human and lived on earth, there are times when we do not understand His Light. As humans, our "vision" is not perfect. The darkness of sin in our hearts keeps us from understanding the Light. This is not because we do not want to understand or even because we are trying to overcome the Light. We simply cannot comprehend the majesty, grace, mercy, and sacrifice that began with Jesus coming to earth on Christmas. So, as we celebrate the birth of Christ, we need to ask God for understanding so our hearts can truly comprehend His plan for our lives and for all of humanity!
Jesus came to show you the way. Ask for understanding to comprehend His plan for your life!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for Your Son and His sacrifice for me. Help me to understand Your plan in my life and help me to live accordingly. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
