JUAN 1:3-4

Christmas is a time to celebrate the greatest gift of all, Jesus. Looking at the story of Christ's anticipated arrival at Christmas reminds us that Jesus came to be the fulfillment of God's promises and faithfulness. All our hopes and prayers are answered in the presence of Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us.

Slow down and savor time with the Savior this season. Choose to pause and ponder as Mary did, to get lost in the wonder of Immanuel, of God with us. This year, let it be simply Christmas.

聖經裡有很多篇幅談到光，從開始到結束，一直不斷談到光。神呼召跟隨耶穌基督的人「活在光明中」，而這並不只是偶爾陽光普照，或是得到些微光線而已。畢竟，神不只是光的創造者，祂就是光。

Need more of God's grace, favor, and blessing? Then pray these five simple prayers of humility, asking the Lord to favor you and help you. He will answer your prayer; He gives grace to the humble! And if you humble yourself before the Lord, He will lift you up.
