Holidays With Jesus: Christmas

DAY 5 OF 25

Christmas is filled with wonderful traditions. 

One of my favorite traditions is when my whole family wears Christmas pajamas and we drive around to see Christmas lights on homes. We’ve done this every year as a family.

The pajamas are warm and comfy, and the Christmas music and hot chocolate are great, but the lights are the main event.

If you think about it, lights have a special way of drawing people in. They’re brilliant, beautiful, and filled with warmth – just like the Light of the world!

The true Light of Christmas has the awesome power and ability of shining truth and love into the most broken, grief-stricken, or hardened of hearts. 

Jesus truly illuminates all that His love touches!

This Christmas season, ask Jesus to show you who needs to know and hear about His love and light! 

Ask Him to make you a bright light for His glory, and to light your path and guide your life. Jesus is faithful to shine and show us His perfect will for us, too!

This Christmas season, let’s allow Christ’s light to draw us in each and every day!

Prayer: “Jesus, thank You for being the Light of the world and shining Your brilliant light into our hearts! Thank You for making a way for each of us to know You intimately and for being our very best and most treasured Friend! This Christmas season, I pray You would show us opportunities to share Your life and Light with others. Make our hearts sensitive and compassionate towards those around us who are hurting, and those who are in darkness, so we can shine Your light of hope into their life! We thank You for all You have done and all You will do in our lives and our loved ones’ lives this special Christmas season! We love and adore You! In Your precious name we pray, Amen!”

Activity: Invite your family to wear Christmas pajamas and go look at Christmas lights in the car together. While driving around, talk about how Christ has changed your heart and life...share ways He has brought Light into your life! Also share with each other what Jesus is currently doing in your heart and life. Don’t forget the Christmas music! After you get back, watch a Christmas movie together. Extended family or close friends are fun to invite too!
