Quiet

When the Light arrived in the darkness, the heavenly Father sent his Son to the back of the line. The Light of the world, the eternal God in the flesh, received no breaks and no advantages. After an unseemly pregnancy and a hard journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem, the fullness of time had come. And…there was no room for Jesus.

God is always with us. He is the mighty one who saves. He rejoices over us. He quiets us with his love. He exults over us with loud singing. That’s amazing love!

The Lord your God is in your midst.

Our prayer focus today is simply this, “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.”

God sent Jesus to die just for you! That’s how much He loves you! You are a child of the living God. He takes great pleasure in you.
