Christmas is a time where we as believers celebrate God’s heart to write himself into our story. Prior to Jesus we had no real picture of God’s love. All we had to know him by was through stories of old and commandments written into law. But only in Jesus was a pathway created whereby we could walk in intimacy with the Father again. Only in Jesus was the veil torn allowing God’s manifest presence into the earth. We owe all that we have to Jesus. We owe all that we have to Christmas. Our Scripture for today comes from John 6:51, and today's worship is Noel by Chris Tomlin feat Lauren Daigle.  Thanks so much for listening to today’s podcast, the first in our two-day celebration of Christmas.  As you go about your day, looking forward to the joy of Christmas day tomorrow, try and take a few moments to simply let God be with you. Allow the truth of what Christmas is all about to invade your reality, celebrating the fact that Jesus came for you by allowing him to make his presence known in a real way today.  May these days draw you ever closer to Emmanuel, God with you, this Christmas.  Have a wonderful rest of your day, and may God bless you as you seek him.
