What the World Needs: Love Comes Near

As we approach Christmas Eve, let us pause and reflect on the profound truth encapsulated in these words. As Luke 2:11 shares, love came near to us, not in grandeur or splendour, but in the humble form of a baby: Jesus, our Saviour, Messiah, and Lord. The birth of Jesus is a divine reminder of God's immeasurable love for humanity. It is a love that reaches beyond the boundaries of time and space, offering hope, forgiveness, and eternal redemption. This love knows no limits, embraces the broken, and brings healing to our souls.

This Week's Scripture:
// Luke 2:4-12 (NIV) //
So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. 

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”
