"Fear not, I bring you good news!" The great mystery of God unfolds in the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. Now we know who we are, to whom we belong, and where we are going in our journey of life. Thus the Christmas story is SUCH GOOD NEWS.

IN THE DARKNESS, HOPE: “The people living in darkness have seen a great light.” Look up, you army of the afflicted, the humbled, the discouraged. The battle is not lost, the victory is yours -- take courage, be strong, because Christ is coming.

GIVING CHRISTMAS FRUIT: This season of gift-giving provides an opportune time to imagine how we might share the fruit of the Spirit during these often hectic days, when both people and packages fill our lives.

BECAUSE GOD LOVES US: Jesus came to us because God loves us. That is the supreme example of agape love. God loves us first. God takes the first step. And the birth of Jesus proves that.

RECEIVING THE GIFT: Do not hesitate to receive joy from Me, for I bestow it on you abundantly. The more you rest in My Presence, the more freely My blessings flow. As you trust Me more and more, you are able to receive Me and My blessings abundantly.

A LIGHT HAS DAWNED: Many in our world today are walking in darkness, ignoring the Light of Christ that has come into our world. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

Sometimes the hype of the season can distract us. In Advent we begin again to try and make plain the wonderful truth of THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY GOOD NEWS the world has ever heard. Soon we will join the angelic chorus singing, “Christ the Savior is born.” https://t.co/JI1gSP0JYv
DIVINE JOY: Joy is just what Jesus intends for you. It is His goal that joy will be a vital part of your life. Jesus comes to bring you the joy of God. Jesus Joy is eternal and powerful.
https://t.co/61nfH3aamH
The angel brought GOOD TIDINGS OF GREAT JOY. The joy of meeting Jesus and gaining entry in a new way of life exceeds the joy of everything else. There is no joy like that of being part of the Kingdom of God. Incomprehensible joy. That is Jesus joy!

PREPARE HIM ROOM: Today, it seems, Christ is turned away from many places and from many hearts. He’s not welcome. But have you invited Him to come into your home,… into your heart? “But to all who received Him, He gave power to become children of God.”
https://t.co/tJVVpKq8cH
Jesus said, “Let the children come to me." BRING THEM TO CHURCH. Let them see you worship. Let them see you pray. Let them see you running toward the Savior. Because if they don’t see and learn these things from you, who are they going to learn them from?

In order to allow the peace of Christ to rule your heart (Col. 3:15), it’s important to recognize who the true source of peace is. True and lasting soul-level peace is found only in a Person: Jesus Christ, THE SOURCE OF ALL PEACE.

THE PEACE OF CHRIST: The infant in the manger comes with a message of peace, an announcement that all sad divisions, all the irreconcilable pieces of our lives will be brought together in the celebration of "shalom" -- God's blessing, God's peace.
