Preparing for Christmas

DAY 11 OF 25

As she was called to be the mother of the Savior, Mary did not fully understand the road ahead, but she placed her confidence in God's guidance. Just as we are invited to trust in the Lord with all our heart, Mary’s willingness to surrender her fears to God became the conduit through which His blessing flowed not only to her, but through her to the entire world. In her, we see a beautiful example of how trusting in God’s direction, even in the unknown, leads to His grace unfolding in powerful ways. Through Mary’s obedience, the Savior of the world was born, and through our trust, His blessing continues to overflow.

About this Plan

Preparing for Christmas

This 25-day Advent devotional was created from CornerstoneSF's video devotional series, Rise & Shine. With videos every day except Sundays, this devotional invites us to open our hearts and prepare for the coming of Jesus. It will begin broadly and then focus deeply on Mary’s experience, highlighting how her humility, faith, and openness paved the way for Christ’s birth. Through her example, we are encouraged to cultivate a heart ready to receive the Savior, embracing His love and presence in our lives.
