Matthew 5:16 (NKJV) 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
Christmas is just around the corner. Everyone is busy shopping, planning parties and family gatherings. It sure is a great celebration.
In all the excitement and extra work that goes into planning for these events, it’s very easy to lose track or forget about the importance of why we are doing what we do.
It’s a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ; the very One who came to this earth to serve.
This can be a great opportunity for us to shine His light as we make sure those people He puts on our hearts are taken care of during this season.
Maybe they are going to be alone at Christmas, or they are financially struggling and going through a tough time.
Maybe there is someone we know who works so hard, but hardly ever gets noticed, so we take the time and do something kind for them.
What a way to celebrate Jesus and what He did for us, by taking time and caring for the one we know who needs a little something this Christmas.
We might think “what difference will it make to do this for just one person? It’s so little when there are so many in need. Why bother?”.
But if we all focused on just one, and there are thousands of us, that would be many “just ONES”! Amen.
Let God speak to our hearts this Christmas season and show us that “one”.
