You are Invited

… and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son.  She wrapped Him in cloths and placed Him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.  Luke 2:7

Today you are invited to find a quiet space and kneel at the manger and gaze at the Christ-child.  Worship Him there – and in the days to come.  What does the sight of the Baby lying in the prickly straw, surrounded by animals, in the starlight mean to you?  What does the picture you are seeing tell you of the love God has for you?  How do you want to express your love for Him, this Baby, your Saviour today and in the days up to Christmas day?  What is He whispering to you today?

May God bless you with a new awareness of the Christ-child and His love for you – for you – this Christmas.

About Mandy Hackland

My love in life is to encourage others to deepen their relationship with God. I write devotional material, stories and small group studies with that in mind. I live in South Africa and also love spending time in the bush, bird watching and walking. I have moved to the coast and am enjoying the green spaces and beautiful vistas that surround me, reminding me of God's grace every day.
