“I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people.” — Luke 2:10
Joy entered the world not through riches, but through relationship—God with us. True joy isn’t the absence of problems but the presence of Christ. The shepherds’ night changed forever because they encountered Jesus. The same joy is yours today, no matter your circumstances.
A candle doesn’t fear darkness; it simply shines. Let your life be that candle of Christmas joy. When heaviness tries to settle in, remember: the Savior has come. The manger became the message that joy is possible again.
Prayer:
Thank You, Jesus, for the gift of salvation and joy that no one can take away. Fill my heart with Your light and let it overflow to others. Amen.
