A thought about Advent....
Whenever someone comes to Christ, and is made a new creation in Him (2 Corinthians 5:17).....God will come and abide within that person. "Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him." (John 14:23 )
So when we come to Christ, Christ draws near to us. Emmanuel, God with us, comes closer than in the Stable....He comes to us directly.
Each time a heart comes to Christ, the Nativity happens all over again.
Each time we return to Christ, the Nativity is renewed.
Each time we share the love and joy of Christ with others, the Nativity is celebrated.
So let us pray, Come Lord. Emmanuel, God with us, be praised.
A blessed Advent to you, my friends,
