The Promise of Spring
Ask the Lord for rain in the springtime; it is the Lord who sends the thunderstorms. He gives showers of rain to all people, and plants of the field to everyone.—Zechariah 10:1 (NIV)
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. James 1:17 (ESV)
ON THIS THIRD Sunday of Advent, as you gather gifts for one another and answer the question of “What do you want for Christmas?”, it’s important to remember Whose birthday it is and what can you do to help honor and celebrate Jesus. Share your generosity and thoughtfulness. Share His message and goodness with others.
In this holy Christmas season, Lord, show me how to best communicate Your love.
