We get to celebrate the birth of our savior. Technically it is not His birthday but the celebration of His birth. It is the day that changed history. It is also an incredible event where the creator of the universe cared so much for His creation that He sent His only son, in human form, as a sacrifice for our sin. When Jesus came as a newborn baby, with all of its frailties, He knew His destiny. Jesus knew that He was a living sacrifice. He knew his future was to die for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>1 John 4:19<\/strong>, &#8220;We love because he first loved us.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Which brings me to today&#8217;s question; Do you know Christ, or do you just know about Christ?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Howard G. Hendricks describes it this way; &#8220;A belief is something you will argue about. A conviction is something you will die for. &#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Do you stand in awe of things you do not understand, or do you yearn for His presence in your life? Is the extent of your faith marveling at the creation, or is it an overwhelming need for closeness to the God that loves you unconditionally? Do other people see God&#8217;s presence in your life, or do they just see positive worldly traits? Is the fullness of God&#8217;s presence in your daily walk, or are you just mimicking characteristics that the world sees as good?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">I sometimes question if I am trying to do what is right to receive God&#8217;s blessings and grace, or does He truly indwell within me? This worldly analogy comes to mind; do I complete the assignments at work to please my boss in hopes of a promotion or a pay raise, or is it because I have a passion for my chosen profession. Would I do it if there was no reward?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>John 4:48<\/strong>, &#8220;Unless you people see signs and wonders,&#8221; Jesus told him, &#8220;You will never believe.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Even the people of Christ&#8217;s time, people who were steeped in the story of the coming Messiah, marveled at what He could do, not who He was. They wanted tangible worldly proof over divine intervention. Can you imagine walking with Christ, seeing all He had done, experiencing His compassion and grace, and still wanting evidence of who He said He was? It is easy to see why we might mimic His behavior without truly internalizing His grace. It is easy to see why we might become fans but not understand how to become followers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">&nbsp;<strong>Job 5:8-9<\/strong>, &#8220;But if I were you, I would appeal to God; I would lay my cause before him. He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">This Christmas season, we will worship the Messiah that wiped away the sins of the world. We will celebrate the birthday of the baby, who walked this earth to show His compassion for what we experience, He would counsel us with His wisdom, and He would lay down His life that we might live. He gives us the greatest reason to have hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Let us, in turn, strive to integrate His holiness into our being. This coming year, let us try not just to mimic the goodness of the world but let Christ live through us. To truly let Christ live through us requires humility and patience. It requires, just as Christ lived, a servant&#8217;s heart. It requires us to love others truly; not just turn the other cheek. It requires us to help and support others who would harm us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>Luke 11:13<\/strong>, &#8220;If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The Holy Spirit living within us is the most fantastic Christmas present Christ is willing to give you, just ask, and it is yours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>Psalm 37:4<\/strong>, &#8220;Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Luke 2:11, &#8220;For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.&#8221; Christmas is always a special time.
