Advent Devotional Christmas Eve
We end the joyous, contemplative season of Advent today as we prepare for our Savior’s birth. Thank you for joining us for this journey. Whatever your circumstances are today, I pray you realize how much God loves you — enough to send His Son Jesus for you.
Today we look at more prophecies about Jesus that foretell of his suffering. While suffering is a difficult reality of life, we can take heart in the fact that Jesus can redeem our own sufferings.
If you’d like a bit of background about Advent, please read Day One’s entry. Keep persevering in your desire to draw closer to God during this season of Advent.

What can we learn from those God called to play a part in the birth of Jesus? Mary, the Magi, the shepherds, Joseph, and Jesus all have important gifts to give us as we seek to understand their roles in the story of the Nativity.
