A FULL CHRISTMAS
JOHN 1:1-6, 9-14, 16-17
Part 1
The Gospels of Matthew and Luke give us portraits of the "Christmas Story," describing some of the events surrounding the birth of Jesus. John begins his Gospel with a beautiful, glorious, and deeply theological description of Jesus—The Word.
John tells us:
- Jesus has always been. (Vs.1)
- Jesus is God and God with us. (Vs.1,2)
- Jesus is Creator. (Vs. 3,10)
- Jesus came to us. (Vs. 10,11 14)
- Jesus is light and life. (Vs. 4,5,9)
- Jesus knows misunderstanding. (Vs. 5)
- Jesus knows rejection. (Vs. 10,11)
- Jesus is Savior. (Vs. 12)
- Jesus is full of grace and truth. (Vs. 14,16,17)
How can we exemplify Christ and have a FULL Christmas?
1.) Be Present.
- Jesus is with us. (Immanuel Isaiah 7:14, 8:8) (Emmanuel Matthew 1:23)
- It is GRACE for us to be more interested and invested in ENJOYING the family and festivities, rather than DOING or MAKING the festivities. (This is a hard balance…convicting for servant minded Mama's.)
2.) Embrace Creativity.
- Jesus created a beautiful world.
- The beauty of Christmas and Christmas decor can reflect His creation and can teach truth. (Nativity, history, Carols)
- *Don't be a Humbug ;)
- *Don't go to the other extreme and get caught up in comparison or frustration.
