He Longs for Us
Jesus was God before time began—He was the Word through whom all things were created. He was in the Garden with Adam and Eve. His heart received sin’s first blow of violence that broke the intimate bond between Him and His beloved creation.
Throughout time, He watched His people struggle. He freed them and led them through the desert. He longed for them to desire Him alone, yet their hearts were far from Him as they worshipped worthless, man-made idols.
Think about how Jesus would have watched and prayed from heaven’s doorway year after year. So when the fullness of time had come, consider His joy in finally coming to us as our Savior.
Activity: Invite some neighbors over for hot chocolate and fellowship.

About this Plan
On a quiet night 2,000 years ago, angels brought news of the Savior’s birth to shepherds tending their flocks—and after hearing the news, those same shepherds left everything to seek a baby in Bethlehem. All these years later, the invitation has not changed. Join Dr. Charles Stanley as he helps you draw near to the Savior, encouraging you to make time to rest in the Father’s love this season.
