Happy December! Christmas is on its way and we couldn’t think of a better way to ready our hearts together than by spending the whole month reading through the story of Jesus’ birth and finding some practical ways to love others. Together, we will work through an Advent reading plan provided by LCBC Church through YouVersion. Our prayer is that as you read about the greatest story ever told, your hearts will be readied for Christ’s arrival.
When Joseph and Mary had done everything required by the Law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee to their own town of Nazareth. And the child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was on him.
Once they had finished all they needed to finish in delivering Jesus, they went back home.
Pray
It is Christmas Day! Enjoy this wonderful day with friends and family, food and fun. In the midst of everything you did to pull off Christmas – the wrapping, the gifts, the cooking, the cleaning – pray you will be able to enjoy it.
Practice
Think through those in your friend networks and those at work who might be alone today and send them a note or a text to join you for Christmas dinner.
No one should be alone at Christmas.
Merry Christmas!
