My Christmas ABC's
J is for joy! At Jesus's birth the angel said, "Fear not, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy. . . (Luke 2:10 KJV)
What greater message could there be than that the Messiah, the Christ, the Anointed One has been born. He is the One who will break the bonds of death and hell. The One who will teach us how to live, then take upon Himself our sins to pay the price to justice; our pains that He will know how to succor us; and offer us His love and mercy, His grace, or enabling power so that we can return to God clean and worthy. Joy in redemption!
May we, like the shepherds, quickly seek Jesus, and then share the good news with everyone else.
