This time of year is stressful. Amen? Think about how we spend our days this time of year? We’re running to buy presents. There are lights to be hung. Baking to be done. We’re running to holiday concerts. Running to holiday tournaments. Running to holiday parties. Don’t forget the Elf on the Shelf. There’s that strand of lights on the house that won’t stop blinking. As your credit cards heat up your blood pressure heats up. It’s a season where there’s never enough time, never enough energy and never enough money to get it all done.
Truth be told, God was never into busy or behavior modification. In fact, Christmas isn't at all about a God who is "watching you." And God never intended for the arrival of God’s Son to lead to Christmas stress for all eternity.
Christmas… It's about a God who "comes to be with us" whatever our circumstance. A God who comes to give you “peace” any our waiting. A God who comes as the light of the world. A God who comes for all people. Christmas is about a God who comes to you…you who are worthy.
