Life changes us. In the midst of everything, we are growing and becoming stronger. We may not recognize it in the moment, but God is always at work. As we prepare to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, we can join in sharing the events of His life that allow us to be redeemed!
The birth of Jesus Christ and our acceptance of Him as our Savior is a life-changing event. As His followers, not everything in our lives will be easy. We will share in sufferings. However, we are reassured by God's promises of eternity with Him. Our celebrations of Christmas can remind us that, in the end, we will see Jesus as we enter into God's eternal kingdom. We have Jesus with us through it all!
Jesus is with us through everything we face, so we can celebrate through times of suffering and comfort!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for being with me through it all. Help me to hold on to You through suffering and comfort. In Jesus I pray, amen.
