The Reason for the Season...

Only a few weeks left until we celebrate the birth of our Savior. It's so easy to get caught up in the cookie making and gift giving and miss the TRUE meaning of the season--God taking on human flesh and stepping down into humanity in order that we might come to know Him, trust in His saving grace, and find eternal life in Him. May your focus this Christmas season be on God's amazing love and grace!

Here's a quote from Louie Giglio to ponder...

"No one has ever had a true glimpse of God and not ended up closer to the floor. He is glorious and massive and radiant and holy and imposing and awe-inspiring and intimidating. Yet, God somehow wedged all that into a Bethlehem manger in Christ so He could wrap us in His arms. Sin continually and deceptively puffs us up, making us think we're larger than life, while shrinking our ability to live in the fullness of His."
