Making the Most of Christmas
The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them (Luke 2:20).
How can you make the most of Christmas? For some it is all about decorating the house or tree, getting that special gift, seeing relative, or getting invited to that certain party. But making the most of Christmas is so much more than any of these things.
Join the shepherds this year in making these next few days a time of glorifying and praising God, a time of celebrating all that Christmas is and means. God inhabits the praises of His people (Psalm 22:3). This worship is where and when God feels at home – in the midst of your praise.
Note the shepherds returned. Where? To their homes and businesses. What an impact this witness must have had on those who knew them best. May God give you the grace to follow these shepherds and make the most of Christmas this year.
CODE WORD: JOY
Another of the code words of Advent is joy. Celebrate Christ above all other things this holiday season. Sing it – Joy to the World the Lord has come!
Lord, thank You for the joy only You can give. Let me celebrate your birth.
