God’s Love Came Through Jesus
“’For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.’ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!’”
Luke 2:11-14

Ponder This
Helen Keller was born both blind and deaf. Of course, this was a challenge for Helen but also for those near her. Consider the challenge of being the parent of a child unable to see or hear you. Helen Keller’s mother said, “Oh, my precious child, your mother loves you so much, but precious little thing, how can I let you know?” But as Helen grew, there was a breakthrough. With the help of a special teacher, they learned how to communicate with her.
When I think about our faith, I see how God, in a sense, had the same kind of problem as Helen Keller’s mother. He said, “My precious child, I love you so much. How can I make you know how much I love you?” Jesus is the answer to that problem. He came to reveal the heart of God, the mind of God, and the love of God. Why the Savior’s birth? It was a ministry of redemption. Why the Savior’s birth? It was a ministry of revelation. Why the Savior’s birth? It was a ministry of restoration, that we might be born again, recreated into what God made us to be from the beginning.
- How do you see the love of God when you consider the nativity?
- Who are some people you know that remain lost and blind without Christ? How can you show them the love of God this Christmas?
Practice This
Ask God to open your spiritual eyes to see His love for you and for the lost. Seek to share the love of God in a tangible way with someone who does not know Him.
