The question for you and me in our dark season of advent is, do we see our life as primarily testing the love of God or as revealing the love of God? Your answer here determines how you will live.

An Angelic Advent. Day 25: When they saw the star they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy.
You don’t need a star or an angel (or whatever it was) to guide you today. You have something, someone, much better. You have the indwelling life of Christ guiding your heart.
TLIC Daily. Day 359. December 25: They fell down and worshiped him.
“To live is Christ” means you don’t need a star to guide you today. You have something, someone, much better. You have the indwelling life of Christ guiding your heart.
An Angelic Advent. Day 24: And an angel of the Lord appeared to them.
So hear the invitation of God today to go and find the Christ child. The Prince of Peace. The one who takes all our sins and all our sorrows and turns them into everything good. The one that will take us to be with him forever. Run to him. Embrace him and embrace your alien God.
An Angelic Advent. Day 23: But as he considered these things, behold an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream.
When we know why we exist, we then know how to exist. When we know what happens when we die, we then know how to live. When we know that God is with us, we then know how to be with others.
An Angelic Advent. Day 22: And Gabriel came to her and said, “Greetings, O favored one, the Lord is with you.”
The virgin Mary didn’t make Jesus’ life. Jesus was a gift to her. His life was given by God and placed into her life. United to hers. By grace. The same grace that is for us all. Why? Because advents are for everyone. God is for everyone. Jesus is for everyone. Will you be for him?
To Live is Christ
