Weekly devotional and church listings: Dec. 3, 2009

What does Christmas mean to you? It is a time for merriment, a time of gift giving, a time for celebration and a time for good food. Too many times we allow this to be our focus on what Christmas should be. Many of us celebrate Christmas as a time of giving and receiving and miss the blessing that Christmas was first intended to be.
Christians celebrate Christmas as the birthday of our Heavenly King and Savior. It is a reminder from God that we have an advocate in Jesus Christ. It is the greatest gift ever given and it is the gift that never fails or goes out of style. Jesus came to give us hope and to allow us to have a Savior that will never leave us.
Suggested daily Bible readings:
Sunday - Luke 2:1-12; Monday - 2 Corinthians 5:17; Tuesday - John 3:16; Wednesday - Psalm 102:12; Thursday - John 10:10; Friday - Isaiah 9:6; Saturday - Matthew 1:21
