The Day After

Danny — Mon, 26 Dec 2011 08:00:37 +0000

What happened after Christmas? Mary and Joseph they have traveled so far, only to end up in a stable to have the King of the world. The Savior is born. Does the inn keeper have bad dreams? When the Shepherd’s go back to the fields, are they changed forever? Do Mary and Joseph see if there is a gift receipt to return any of the gifts? Does the star disappear or fade into the distance? We know very little of what happens next. But what we do know is this: this baby marked history forever. His birth would start the beginning of a new era. His birth is the beginning of the transformational process that takes place in our lives. His birth is the beginning of God putting on human flesh. It’s where frailty and unspeakably great power collide. It’s where humility and greatness join. This baby is the glue that holds everything together.

John 1:14

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Colossians 1:17

He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

Let’s be amazed! Let’s be overwhelmed! Let’s be humbled! Let’s be in awe and worship as we remember that God’s Son took on human flesh that we might have access to the Father! Merry Christmas!

During this Christmas week, let’s reflect on God’s amazing gift of Christmas by letting the Scriptures tell us the story. No pictures. No videos. No commentary. Let God’s Word speak to you. Take time to meditate on these passages, some of which are so familiar, but can become new with pause and reflection. Let the story of Christmas fill you with awe again as you read the Word each day. Merry Christmas!

Let the story of Christmas fill you with awe again as you read the Word each day. Merry Christmas!

Give Fragrantly

Christmas is the “season of giving” and the time to remember the greatest single gift ever given — God offering up His one and only Son that we might gain access to Him. I was thinking about that glorious child being born in an animal’s feed trough. What a glorious gift wrapped in the simplest of adornments.
