The Source of Love

Scripture: 1 John 4:10

"This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins."

Brief Explanation: John 3:16 states that God so loved the world that He gave His Son. This supporting scripture confirms that God's action was the initiator of love. Christmas is a celebration of God's unilateral decision to love and redeem us, independent of anything we had done. This reality prepares our hearts for His presence.

Reflection Questions:

• How does understanding that God loved me first provide freedom from anxiety or performance pressure during the Christmas season?
• What does acknowledging Christ as an "atoning sacrifice" mean for how I view the importance of His birth?
