A Christmas Devotional
About finding God…
Matthew 2:1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod,
Magi from the east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, "Where is the one who has been born
king of the Jews?
There is no greater quest in life than the search for God. In spite of many hardships,
trials, and tribulations, our world seems not so intent upon finding Him. The wonderful
Magi, who had traveled from afar, came searching for the baby, not to get something from
Him, but to give something to Him. In each of our lives, we can most quickly find
God when we seek to give to Him rather than trying to get something from Him.
The
example of giving we see flow through Christ's life…is the culminating in His giving of
His life for us on the Cross. As we give this Christmas season, let us remember to
truly find and keep God alive within our hearts. We must not go seeking to get something
from Him. As we give this Christmas season, let us remember to give to Him and for Him.
God is found in His giving Love. God is found in His giving Love, resting quietly in a
manger where livestock surveyed the wonder of His birth.
