Preparing for Christmasಮಾದರಿ

On this first day of Advent, we pause to reflect on the promise God made to Jacob—a blessing intended for all the families of the earth. From the very beginning, God’s plan was to shape each person with intentionality, love, and purpose. Just as Jacob’s descendants carried this promise forward, Jesus, born in Bethlehem of the virgin Mary, is the fulfillment of that divine plan. His life is a manifestation of God’s love, purpose, and blessing—woven into the fabric of our own lives. As we anticipate the celebration of Christmas, let us remember that we, too, are crafted with purpose by God, and like the psalmist celebrates the works of God, may we reflect on His greatness and be filled with joy as we prepare to celebrate Jesus' birth.
