Day 11 of our 25 Days of Advent devotional series

We're back with Day 11 of our 25 Days of Advent devotional series. To Quickly recap, Advent is the preparation period for the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. To prepare, we are partaking in daily devotionals until Christmas Day. With that said, let's jump right into today's devotional. 

For today's devotional, let us read, Matthew 1:23 which says, Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel, which means ‘God is with us. 

I can’t believe that we have two weeks until Christmas but I feel such joy in knowing that we are celebrating Christ coming and the word becoming flesh. As Christians we know a living God a God who sustains us in all areas and is our hope. If you’ve ever felt like God is indifferent or uncaring toward you, remember the story of Christmas. Remember that God pursued you in Christ, and He continues to do so. We do not worship a distant God but rather a dwelling God – the God who makes His home among us, the God who is Immanuel, the God who is with us!

Prayer: Lord, thank you for always being with me. You promise to never leave me or forsake me. When I am tempted to doubt your presence, remind me that in Christ, you came to me. In Jesus name, amen.

We have concluded day eleven of our 25 Days of Advent series. As your sister in Christ, I hope you have a fantastic holiday season. Merry Christmas, and have a wonderful day.
