The Journey

For the last several years, I have been looking for a way to keep the true meaning of the Christmas Sesaon from being forced out by the busyness and commercialization of this Season.

My plan this year is to find a video that focuses in on an aspect of Christmas of which I need to be reminded. After the video, I wanted to write a thought or two and a plan of action for the day.

So I invite you on this journey with me. I am going to try and do this each day during the week - hopefully I will be able to keep this pace.

Day Four - 16 Days Until Christmas

The central message of Christmas is that God chose to come and live in His Creation with the very people He created. Think about that for a second. He created everything - mankind rebelled mucking it up - and He chose to come into the mess we made and start restoring it one person at a time. And one day, He will make all things new.

When He was born, He was given the name, "Immanuel" which means God with us. And He is with us here today.

For those who feel abandoned - He is there.

For those who are filled with Pain - He is there.

For those who are lonely - He is there.

For those that are searching - He is there.

Maybe, just maybe, during this Christmas Season, we all need to reminded, "You are not alone - He is here - Listen for Him." Maybe we just need to stop for a minute to hear/see Him.


Keep looking for Him.
