The Work of Christmas

This Advent, we're faced again with the choice of what we do when things go dark. Do we rush towards activity and busyness or do we slump towards isolation and sadness? Jesus, Light coming into the world as an infant, has a different invitation. With God, we can light a candle and ask for this season of night to be illuminated.

It’s easy to experience life as a rat race for happiness. Who can get it first? Who can make it last the longest? Is joy any different? When we sing “Joy to the World,” are we singing for the world to have momentary happiness? Let’s hope not.

Thankfully, the joy of a Jesus follower is more than a fleeting happy thought. Even better: joy is from God. The pressure is off for us to manufacture happiness on our own. Instead, we partner with the Holy Spirit to cultivate our hearts to receive deep, lasting joy as a gift. Come Sunday to hear and experience more.
