This week in our Advent series, we are reflecting on the love of God revealed in the gift of His Son. John 3:16 reminds us, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” God’s love is personal, sacrificial, and transformative. He gave what was most precious to Him so that one day we could be where He is. Therefore, the gift of Jesus is the most profound and useful gift we will ever receive.
Jesus came to bridge the gap between God and humanity. He became flesh so that we could understand God’s heart. Romans 8:32 assures us that if God did not spare His Son, He will graciously provide for all our needs. God’s love is not only for us to receive but also for us to share, flowing through us to bless others and extend His kingdom.
This Christmas, let's reflect on the love we have received and consider how we can share it with those around us. Where do you need to receive God’s love this season? Who needs to experience Christ’s love through you? Let’s conclude this Advent season with hearts ready to receive and hands prepared to share, living as a people transformed by the greatest love story ever told.
