Before We Dive In

"Come on, let's go to Bethlehem! Let's see this wonderful thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about." Luke 2:15

As the day approaches, how have we prepared our hearts and our children's hearts for this celebration?

Have we prepared the best for Him?

Have we sent out the invitations and spread the Word?

The Shepherds couldn't wait to go see Jesus.

The Wise Men set out on a journey to see Him.

Are we that anxious and excited to see Jesus and celebrate His birthday?

Let's not let presents filled with materialistic things fill us with more joy than celebrating the life of Christ.

Maybe this year we could spend time praising Him before we dive into the gifts.
