"While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them." -Luke 2:6-7 (NIV)
The Christmas season can bring with it a long to do list. From shopping to preparing food to cleaning and decorating, the list ay seem to grow right up until Christmas day. Even though we may feel we need to do the things on our list, the most important thing to remember is why we are celebrating!
We should not forget that we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, our Savior. It is through His birth, life, death, and resurrection that we can be cleansed of our sin. We can be redeemed through Him and experience eternal glory with God. While our earthly chores may seem pressing, nothing in the here and now are more important than celebrating and praising God and His Son, our Savior!
Don't forget to celebrate Jesus during this Christmas season!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the gift of Your Son and the redemption I can have through Him. Help me to always take time to celebrate Him and to praise You. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
