It is Christmas time and some things never change. A feeling of excitement and eager anticipation bubbles up in our children and many adults look forward to traditional family gatherings. A sense of wonder surrounds the season; I hope we don’t miss it!
Jesus' birth was prophesied nearly seven hundred year before it occurred. The Jewish women of Jesus' time knew there would be one blessed woman who would give birth to the Messiah. Great anticipation for the coming King swelled in their hearts, but most of them missed it!
Christmas time is upon us. Through our carefully planned celebrations and traditions, we remember the coming of the Messiah, the Babe in the manger, the God of the universe taking on human flesh. In the middle of all those wonderful Christmas traditions, remember to spend some time thanking God for the wonderful gift of His Son. Don't miss it!
Isaiah 7:14, 9:6, Micah 5:2
