12 Days of Christmas Devotions
Day 2- Thursday
Good morning..I’m Grace Heart and thank you all for joining me in these 12 days of Christmas devotion calls. If you haven’t already, please just mute your phones...and lets begin
I thought we’d talk about change today. Life defining moments come from life defining situations. The night Jesus was born, the shepherds had a life defining situation. Luke 2:8-15 tell us that the Angel of the Lord appeared to them...now THATs a life defining moment! Their focus no longer was on the sheep, but in going to see the Lamb of God. Later on in time, Matthew 2 1-12 tells us about magi from the East came to seek out the child. They were given a star to follow and were instructed in a dream to not go back the same way they came. When you have an encounter with Christ, we should be changed...it should leave us changed. I hope this Christmas that you have an encounter with Christ that leaves you changed and filled for a new year ahead.
Let’s pray:
Dear Lord;
As we prepare to celebrate your birth, we dont want to get so caught up in the process of Christmas that we miss an encounter with you. I pray that we leave Christmas changed...that we have a little more of you and a little less of us going into the new year ahead. Thank you that once we know you, we cant possible go back to the way we came...you give us a new direction in life.
AMEN
