Today on Christmas Eve, I pray you don’t miss two of the most important words of the Christmas story: “To you.” When the angel announced Jesus’ birth to the shepherds, he said, “Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord” (Luke 2:11). “A Savior has been born… the Messiah… the Lord… to you!” The best part of Christmas is that Jesus was born “to you.”
To you whose heart is broken.
To you who feel all alone.
To you who can’t silence the regret.
To you who don’t know how you’re going to make it through today.
To you who wonder if it’s really all true.
To you who long to be loved.
To you who don’t deserve it.
To you!
Don’t miss it today. Don’t let anything distract you from what Christmas is really all about. Go to church and hear God’s message to you. Open your Bible to Luke chapter 2 and read about the Savior born to you. Rejoice that no matter what you’re facing in your life, no matter how unsurmountable the odds, nothing can change the truth that “Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you!”
Merry Christmas!
