Disharmony in our family, addiction, poverty, loneliness or other conflicts may be part of our life’s story. However, regardless of the many disappointments we may have experienced, God knows and cares about where we are at today, and He wants to help.
At certain times in the past, life for us may have been painful and we were powerless to do anything about it. We felt unnoticed by family members and others and in our hearts determined that no one really understood or cared about us. The truth is, God sees, God understands, and God cares about us. Jesus, the only begotten Son of God, entered into our human experience and identifies with our pain. One of the titles given to Jesus is “Immanuel,” which means God with us.
God’s invitation to us today is to turn our negative memories and regrets over to Him and let Him heal our hearts. We can give God the pain of our past and receive from Him a purposeful future. What a great exchange! This is the gift that Christmas brings for each person.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, Thank you for the gift of Jesus. May I ever be mindful that Jesus came into the world that I might have life and have it to the full. Amen
