The Sacrifice of Christmas

It’s easy during the Christmas season to get so caught up in the busyness and gifts that we forget the immense sacrifice Jesus made to dwell with us. The truth is that Jesus gave of himself joyfully so that we may experience the beauty of God with us. So across the next two days we’ll both celebrate and reflect on the joyful reality of Christmas. May this time together help us center our celebrations around the goodness of Emmanuel, God with us. On this wonderful Christmas Eve let’s take a moment to reflect on the heart of Jesus.More from First15Read today's devotional or listen to today's worship song at First15.org/todayDownload the First15 appDonate to First15 at supportfirst15.orgShare a testimony or feedback at [email protected] to First15Check out our new Guided Prayers podcast - Subscribe for new episodes every Monday!First15 is a brand of Denison Ministries.
