Merry Christmas to you and yours!
For many, today will be a day of consumption, feeding our bodies with food and other material goods. May this also be a day of much-needed spiritual consumption, feeding our souls with the Word of God and the great truths of the birth of Jesus.
Here’s my favorite Christmas verses:
“For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich” (2 Corinthians 8:9).
Because Jesus left the glory of heaven, we have received spiritual riches of infinite value.
Forgiveness of sins, deliverance from the wrath of a holy God, a reconciled relationship with the Father – these are but three of the countless gifts that come from the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, all because He was willing and able to enter our world.
