Consider

In this world where so much feels temporary—where gifts break, relationships fray, and life brings loss—the promise that Jesus is making all things new is truly good news. As we celebrate His coming this Advent season, we also anticipate the day when all that is broken will be fully restored.

As you give and receive gifts this Christmas, let them remind you of the far greater gifts God has in store. Reorient your mind to the truth that even in the face of loss or disappointment, Jesus’ promise of restoration is sure. Rejoicing in this truth can transform how we approach the season. Rather than getting caught up in the temporary nature of things, we can live with a deeper sense of hope and anticipation for the day when all things will be renewed and all that is good will last forever. What a reason to celebrate!
