“And he came to her and said, “Greetings, Oh favored one, the Lord is with you!” Luke 1:28
In this season of Christmas, do you take a moment to see the incredible love that God has given to humanity through Christ Jesus? In Luke 1:28, we are reminded of the angel’s words to Mary, affirming her as highly favored by God. This gift of favor and grace extends beyond Mary; it encompasses all of humanity. Through Jesus, we receive the ultimate expression of God’s love.
As we reflect on this truth, let us embrace a spirit of gratitude and joy. Let us recognize the immense value that God places on each and every one of us, demonstrated through His gift of His Son. The Christmas season serves as a powerful reminder of the depth of God’s love for us.
1 John 4:10 says, “In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.”
Through the lens of faith and humility, we can perceive the profound significance of God’s gift to humanity in the form of Christ Jesus. Let us embrace this Christmas season with a renewed perspective on the immeasurable value of God’s gift through Christ Jesus because through Him we see the ultimate expression of God’s grace and mercy towards humankind.
May this awareness fill your heart with encouragement and hope. May you fully grasp the significance of God’s gift to humankind through Christ Jesus during this special time. Take a moment to ponder and rejoice in this beautiful truth – you are highly favored by God, cherished beyond measure in His eyes. Amen. Psalm 84:11 says, “For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor. No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly.” Amen.
Prayer for Today!
Oh gracious Father, as we gather in this special time, may our hearts be open to fully comprehend the deep significance of your precious gift to us through Christ Jesus. Amen.
