Christmas Traditions

I have this little tradition that I started a few years ago. I learned of it on Facebook of all places.

It was someone's tradition to read through the book of Luke. They would read one Chapter a day beginning on December 1st. They explain that they chose Luke for a few reasons. The first was it gives us the most known story of Jesus' birth in Luke Chapter 2. Then we get to know Jesus from the prospective of Luke in his gospel as information gathered from many sources. The last reason is that Luke is 24 Chapters long. We finish the reading on Christmas Eve.

Last year was the first year I missed doing this. I was at a loss for the entire Christmas season. I don't want to miss it this year.

I have don't the readings each night. My home fellowship has often read Luke with me. We hold each other accountable. There is no shame in falling behind either. We encouraged each other to catch up and finish strong. Just like running a race. I don't do this as a mindless devotion. I pray before I read the scripture. I want the Lord to show me something new. And he has each time I did this. I think that is why I was at a loss of missing something when I didn't read Luke last year.

Would you like to join me, we can post here how we are doing, in my little Christmas Tradition? I think it brings me closer to the Lord.

Think Like a Child

Think about the greatest person you’ve ever met. What is it about the person that makes them stand out to you? Maybe it’s their accomplishments, their character, their power or wealth, or the way they handle hard situations.  

Now compare that impressive person to a child in your life. According to Jesus, anyone who is truly great in His kingdom will be like that little child. In fact, to even enter into His kingdom, we need to be childlike. Here’s why: 

  • Children rely on others to meet their needs. Little children instinctively know that they are vulnerable and helpless. They aren’t afraid to ask for help when they need it because they know that help from the right person is their source of strength.

  • Children don’t care about acquiring power. They don’t view others as threats to their authority because they don’t have any authority to threaten. Everything a child has is given to them.

  • Children know who they belong to. Children know who to run to when ...
