READING: Isaiah 9:2-7
“For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
Isaiah 9: 6
Like these verses in Isaiah, A new day is coming. Just as there was gloom and darkness before, God provided a great light and caused their nation to grow, making the people happy. We too live in spiritual darkness without the love of Jesus.
God gave his people the greatest gift to ever be given, his only Son. Jesus came to earth just as each of us; a baby. To grow and learn through childhood as all children do. He lived a normal life, so that he could experience and know our pain, joys and frustration. Then he took all our sin into his body and died for us, so that we could have everlasting life.
No greater gift could be given. Thanks be to God.
Merry Christmas.
Father in Heaven, You gave us the greatest gift of all, your Son, Jesus Christ. He has lived among us and died for our sins. Don’t ever let us forget this most precious gift .
