Let’s take a moment to slow our pace and reflect on the Christmas story with fresh eyes. In that quiet place, we start to see God’s grace woven into each detail, guiding every step and stirring every heart. The arrival of Jesus reveals a grace that’s not distant or abstract but personal and present, a grace that meets us where we are and offers us what we could never earn ourselves. Jesus came to walk among us, sharing our struggles, our joys, and our weaknesses. And because He understands us so deeply, He extends compassion and strength, inviting us to draw near without hesitation. This season, may we discover grace hidden in plain sight—grace that surrounds, sustains, and gently reminds us of how loved we truly are.

About this Plan
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.
