How would you describe the Christmas season? Busy? Hectic? Stressful?
Mary and Joseph could have characterized the days leading up to Jesus’s birth that way too. Their hours were filled with hectic packing for an unexpected journey, the stress of traveling to Bethlehem in census traffic, and all the other busyness of preparing for a baby’s arrival. But when an angel told Mary that she would bear the Messiah, Mary said, “My spirit rejoices in God my savior ... for the Mighty One has done great things for me” (Luke 1:46, 49). And the angel who visited the shepherds said the news of Jesus’s birth would generate “great joy” (Luke 2:10).
So how do we move from stressful to joyful? We follow Mary’s example and ponder these events in our heart (Luke 2:19). Restore the Joy: Daily Devotions for December is a 31-day journey through the Bible: Visit Old Testament books to see what the patriarchs, the psalmists, and the prophets knew about the promise of the coming Messiah. Stop in New Testament books to explore how meeting the Messiah transformed lives. Study some Christmas lyrics to see what filled carol and hymn writers with joy and hope.
Step away from busy, hectic, and stressful activities. Step into peace, hope, and praise this December. Follow the Messiah’s story from Genesis to Revelation and enter the new year with joy.
