  • Advent Day 25 Christmas Day - Emmanuel—God With Us

    Advent Day 25 Christmas Day - Emmanuel—God With Us
    Dec 25 2024
    Christmas Day - Emmanuel—God With UsScripture: Matthew 1:23 (NIV)
    "The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel' (which means 'God with us')."

    Merry Christmas! We've arrived at the culmination of our Advent journey. Remember how in Star Wars, with Luke Skywalker they have as the title says “A New Hope” for the galaxy? In a far greater way, Jesus' birth is God stepping into our world and giving us a new hope.
    Immanuel—God with us. Not distant, not detached, but here among us. This is the ultimate expression of love, the fulfillment of hope, peace, and joy we've been exploring.
    Prayer:
    Father, thank You for sending Jesus to be with us. As we celebrate today, let us carry the truth of Emmanuel in our hearts. May we live in the fullness of Your hope, peace, joy, and love. In Jesus' name, Amen.
    Thank you for journeying with me through these 25 days of Advent. As you celebrate Christmas, let's carry these reflections in our hearts. Love is not just a feeling; it's an action rooted in God's example.

  • Advent Day 24 - Love One Another

    Advent Day 24 - Love One Another
    Dec 24 2024
    Advent Day 24 - Love One AnotherScripture: John 13:34 (NIV)
    "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another."

    Welcome back! As we near the end of our Advent journey, let's focus on Jesus' words in John 13:34: "Love one another." Just as He loves us.
    Picture the camaraderie among the Avengers or the fellowship in The Lord of the Rings. Those bonds are strong because they're rooted in shared purpose and sacrifice. Jesus calls us to a love that's even deeper—a love modeled after His own.
    That phrase "As I have loved you" raises the bar significantly. Jesus' love is unconditional, sacrificial, and forgiving. He washed His disciples' feet, served others selflessly, and ultimately laid down His life.
    We're called to emulate that kind of love. It's not about grand gestures but daily choices—listening to a friend in need, forgiving someone who hurt us, or serving without expecting anything in return.
    By loving others as Jesus loves us, we become reflections of Him in a world that desperately needs His love.
    Prayer:
    Lord Jesus, thank You for demonstrating perfect love. Help us to love others as You have loved us. Remove any barriers in our hearts that prevent us from loving fully. May our love be a testament to Your transforming power. In Your precious name, Amen.
    I hope these episodes have encouraged you to deepen your understanding of God's love and to share it abundantly with others. Stay tuned for our final episode on Christmas Day, where we'll celebrate the arrival of Jesus, the embodiment of all we've discussed—Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love.
    Until then, may God's unfailing love surround you and flow through you!

  • Advent Day 23 - The Greatest Commandment

    Advent Day 23 - The Greatest Commandment
    Dec 23 2024
    Advent Day 23 - The Greatest CommandmentScripture: Matthew 22:37-39 (NIV)
    Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"

    Hey friends! Today's scripture is a familiar one but always worth revisiting. In Matthew 22:37-39, Jesus sums up the entire law with two commandments: Love God and love your neighbor.
    It's like the Prime Directive in Star Trek, the core principle that guides all actions. For us, love is that guiding principle. Loving God with all our heart, soul, and mind means putting Him first in everything. It's about an all-encompassing, passionate relationship with our Creator.
    The second part is loving our neighbor as ourselves. That's sometimes easier said than done, right? Neighbors aren't just the people who live next door—they're coworkers, family members, even that person who cuts you off in traffic.
    Loving others means showing kindness, patience, and compassion, even when it's inconvenient. It's about seeing people through God's eyes, made in His image and valuing them as He does.
    Prayer:
    Dear God, help us to love You with all that we are. Teach us to prioritize our relationship with You above all else. Also, help us to love our neighbors as ourselves. Give us the grace to show genuine love to those around us, reflecting Your love in our actions. In Jesus' name, Amen.
